Audited planning profile
This lean ten-year profile applies a 0.75× editable baseline across 120 model periods to the home insurance compare model.
Use the difference between option A and option B; keep the scale and horizon identical for both. Treat the lean scale as a lower-bound plan and test whether essential fixed costs still fit. Use a wide uncertainty range; small recurring assumption errors compound substantially over ten years.
Lender underwriting, local taxes, legal fees, insurance terms, maintenance shocks and future property values are not inferred.
Reconcile the result with a lender quote, contract terms and a local closing-cost estimate.
