SKAN
By Genehome, Inc.
Why don't homes have a condition record?
Cars have CarFax.
Finances have ledgers.
People have medical records.
SKAN creates the first standardized system of record for property condition reporting — a new category for how properties are understood, maintained, and valued over time.
The Gap
Real estate has no memory.
Property condition is documented constantly — but rarely retained.
Inspections are treated as one-off events.

As a result, condition knowledge is continuously lost even as properties age and risk accumulates.
The Why
Why condition never became a record
Property condition failed to become a true system of record for one reason: there was no shared standard.
Without a baseline:
Condition can’t be compared.

History can’t compound.

SKAN starts by solving the standardization problem — not the inspection problem.
The New Standard
Introducing the Property Condition Record
A true condition record is not a report.
It is not a snapshot in time.
A condition record must:
Be standardized so condition means the same thing every time.
Be standardized so condition means the same thing every time.
Be standardized so condition means the same thing every time.
Be standardized so condition means the same thing every time.
Be persistent so history is never lost.

Be objective so incentives don’t distort truth.

Be transferable so it outlives vendors and owners.

SKAN is the first system designed to meet these requirements.

A Record Exists
Without persistence, condition cannot improve — it can only repeat. SKAN ensures condition knowledge never resets.

The Possibilities
What becomes possible when condition has a record:
Maintence Shift
Maintenance shifts from reactive to planned
CapEx Clarity
CapEx becomes defensible, not speculative
Informed Conversations
Insurance conversations become grounded in evidence
Transparent Visability
Transactions gain transparency while portfolios gain visibility instead of averages
This is the compounding value of a condition record.

The Pilot
Why we started in San Luis Obispo County
Coastal environments accelerate failure.
Small condition issues become expensive quickly.
If a condition record works here — it works anywhere.
