Audited planning profile
This lean weekly profile applies a 0.75× editable baseline across 7 model periods to the shared housing buffer model.
Use the buffered result for planning and the unbuffered result as the transparent baseline. Treat the lean scale as a lower-bound plan and test whether essential fixed costs still fit. Account for weekday/weekend variation and incomplete weeks.
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.
