A little local knowledge goes a long way
The listing tells half the story.
Meet the conversations listings leave out. Project Front Porch is building a place for neighbors, former occupants, and tradespeople to share what they know—so buyers know what to ask.
In development. Starting small, with the community—not a sales pitch.
Every house has a backstory.
Let’s make room for the people who know it.
Our founding promises
No buyer-lead sales in the MVP
Experience labels, not truth badges
Community knowledge, not an inspection
A porch beside the listing
More context.
Better questions.
You don’t need to know construction to ask a good question. And you don’t need a professional title to have something useful to share.
“What’s this street like during the morning commute?”
“Are there records for the roof replacement?”
Keep the listing. Open the conversation.
The planned Chrome side panel brings a property’s discussion alongside the listing. Supported sites will be announced only after testing.
Hear from people, not just the description.
Read observations, replies, and captioned photos with contributor experience labels. Firsthand knowledge and recollection stay distinct from documented evidence.
Take the good questions with you.
Save questions to a personal buyer checklist. Share a discussion link with someone else—public reading is planned without an account; contributing requires sign-in.
Candid conversations. Clear boundaries.
Reporting, corrections, and moderation are part of the MVP plan. Community observations are starting points for investigation—not valuations, verified diagnoses, or a substitute for a qualified inspection.
The first step is a small pilot
Pull up a chair.
Bring a better question.
We’re building the smallest useful version first: a tested listing connection, a shared discussion, and questions worth taking to your next walkthrough.

In development. Next: test a real listing in Chrome, confirm the correct property match, and verify that a contribution appears in another session. No extension download or public pilot signup is available yet.
