Working backwards from the end

Cost and schedule from one model.

Renaldo thinks about every residential project from the end backwards. The two questions that actually matter in construction – what does it cost and when will it be finished – are answered from the same building data. Which is why the answers always agree.

The cost side

Work item

Which works? From a database covering more than 20 trades.

×Quantity

How much? From your building and room data.

×Unit price

At what price? Real regional contractor rates.

=Costing without a quantity take-off — every line item linked to your building.
1Rough estimate 2Bankable 3Tender-ready

The cost-certainty indicator tells you at any moment how solid your numbers are – and what is still missing to reach the next level.

The schedule side

Task

Which steps? Durations come out of your works configuration – not out of manual work.

Dependency

What hangs on what? One slip cascades through the whole plan automatically, buffers included.

Status update

How is it really going? Trades report from the portal – via link, no account, offline too.

=A construction schedule that writes itself — instead of a spreadsheet that is out of date by week two.

Because cost and schedule hang off the same model, you see immediately what a delay costs – and what a decision means in time. That link simply does not exist elsewhere: scheduling tools don't know the costs, costing tools don't know the rhythm of the site.

And before any of that begins: three-click feasibility tells you before you buy whether a plot stacks up — right down to the maximum land price it can carry. See it for developers →

In short

What is Renaldo?

Renaldo is project and cost management for residential construction – new build and retrofit, from single-family homes to apartment blocks. We bring developers, asset managers, professionals, homeowners and financing partners around one table, with software that makes the entire lifecycle plannable. On top of that comes knowledge: free webinars, practical know-how and a certified retrofit-coach qualification.

  • for developers & asset managers: acquisition, potential, apartment-block costing, tendering, construction, operation and sale – the portfolio under control, billed by project value.
  • for professionals: import building data, plan the works, tender, analyse bids, coordinate trades, inspect, manage defects, check invoices – new build & retrofit, as many projects as you like.
  • for homeowners: a running overview of costs, funding, decisions and dates – new build or retrofit, all in one app.
  • for partners: advice and referrals based on live data and fast service, instead of gut feeling and long waits.
Platform features
