The Game
How RenoRise plays.
From spotting a rundown lot to cashing out on the finished flip — here's the full loop: buying, evaluating, planning, remodeling, staffing your crew, and selling for profit.
01 · Acquisition
Buy properties across the city
Every district has its own mix of listings, from waterfront row-houses to gutted industrial shells. Buying is where a flip starts — and where a bad read on a lot can sink one before it begins.
- Browse listings across every district, filtered by budget, lot size, and renovation potential.
- Distressed and foreclosure sales appear on a rotating basis — the worse the condition, the deeper the discount.
- Zoning and lot data are visible before you buy, so you know what you're allowed to build.

02 · Assessment
Evaluate before you commit
An inspection surfaces what a listing photo won't. Run an evaluation before you buy — or before you plan a remodel — to see what you're actually working with.
Location score
Walkability, neighborhood trend, and nearby amenities, rolled into a single rating.
Market comps
Recent sale prices for similar renovated units nearby, so you know your ceiling.
Renovation potential
An estimated post-renovation value ceiling based on layout, lot size, and zoning.
03 · Planning
Plan the renovation before swinging a hammer
Every job starts on paper. Lay out the plan against the property's existing blueprint, sequence the work, and set a budget before any crew shows up.
- Sketch changes directly on the existing floor plan and see the impact on livable space instantly.
- Sequence work so structural and plumbing changes happen before finishes go in.
- Set a budget ceiling — the plan flags any line item that would blow past it.

04 · Scope
Choose your remodel tier
Not every property needs to be gutted. Pick the scope that matches the property's condition, your budget, and how fast you need to sell.
Basic Remodel
A cosmetic refresh for properties that are already structurally sound — fast, cheap, and enough to move a listing.
- Paint, flooring, fixtures, and surface repairs
- Lower cost and faster turnaround
- No structural or floor-plan changes
- Best for properties with a solid condition report
Full Remodel
Structural rework, floor-plan changes, and system upgrades — the highest cost, and the highest resale ceiling.
- Structural, electrical, and plumbing overhauls
- Floor-plan changes and room additions unlocked
- Higher upfront cost and longer timeline
- Unlocks the property's full renovation potential
05 · Layout
Reshape the floor plan
Full Remodels unlock the layout editor. Redraw the interior, and the property's livable square footage and value update on the spot.
- Knock down interior walls to open up living space.
- Reroute plumbing and electrical to support a new layout.
- Add, split, or remove rooms — subject to structural and zoning limits.

06 · Crew
Hire the crew that gets it done
A renovation plan is only as good as the crew executing it. Build a roster and assign the right specialist to the right job.
General contractor
Runs the site, coordinates every other trade, and sets the overall pace of the job.
Electrician
Handles rewiring and panel upgrades — required for any full electrical overhaul.
Plumber
Reroutes supply and drain lines, especially when a floor plan moves a bathroom or kitchen.
Interior designer
Picks finishes and staging that move the needle on the final sale price.
07 · Output
Keep your crew productive
Hiring the crew is only half the job — how you manage them determines how fast a renovation actually finishes.
- Crew skill level and morale set your base productivity rate.
- Overlapping too many jobs on one site slows everyone down.
- Tool and training upgrades push productivity past its starting cap.

08 · Budget
Costs and timelines you can plan around
Every remodel tier has a predictable cost and time range, so you can budget a flip before the first hammer swings. Actual figures shift with district, crew skill, and property size.
Typical in-game turnaround for a cosmetic refresh.
Structural work and floor-plan changes take longer to sign off.
Pay a premium to compress any job's timeline.
Mid-project plan changes add both cost and days to the job.
09 · Payoff
Sell for profit
The whole loop closes here. List the finished property, watch the market, and decide whether to cash out or hold.
- List the property once renovations are signed off by an inspector.
- Market conditions and neighborhood comps shift the achievable sale price day to day.
- Reinvest profits into your next flip — or hold and rent the unit for passive income.
