Can I show buyers what a fixer-upper could look like?
Yes. At propwalk.io, upload the photo of the dated room, pick what changes (wall color, floors, cabinets and more), and a renovation preview comes back. It is about a dollar a photo inside the Starter plan ($49 a month, or $39 a month billed yearly), or $39 once for one listing.
We make PropWalk, so read this as a list from a competitor who checked the prices. A preview is a picture of an idea, not the house. PropWalk changes the surfaces you pick and leaves the walls, windows and layout as they are. Label it as a concept and keep the real photo next to it.
