HomeLens shows a panel alongside the Zillow listing. Every section is calculated in real time for that specific property.
What's in the panel
Every section explained
Set your workplace once in your profile. HomeLens calculates the real peak-hour drive time and transit time for every listing you view — not best-case Google Maps.
Enter your income, down payment, and mortgage rate once. HomeLens calculates the real monthly cost — mortgage, tax, insurance, utilities, groceries, and gas — adjusted for your finances.
See the nearest grocery store, gym, coffee shop, restaurant, school, and pharmacy — with exact distances. Know if your day-to-day life is convenient before you tour.
Pulls EWG tap water data for the property's zip code. See the overall quality score and which contaminants — if any — have been detected above health guidelines.
