How do I update my home's features?

Keeping your home's information up-to-date in the Pearl app is essential to accurately reflect its high-performing features and to maintain or improve your Pearl score. The Pearl app makes it simple for homeowners to add, edit, and update details about your home's systems and upgrades. 

1. Open the Pearl App: Start by opening the Pearl app on your mobile device or computer and logging into your account. If you don't have the app yet, download it from the appropriate app store and create your account.
2. Access the Features Section: Look for the section that lists your home’s features.
3. Select a Feature to Update: If you need to update an existing feature, select it from the list. 
4. Add a New Feature: To add a new feature, look for an "Add Feature" or "Add Asset" button. Follow the app's prompts to select the type of feature you want to add (e.g., HVAC system, insulation, solar panels).
5. Follow the Instructions: The Pearl app provides clear instructions for each type of feature. Enter the requested information accurately. This might include model numbers, efficiency ratings, installation dates, and any relevant documentation.
6. Upload Documentation: You may be prompted to upload documentation to support the information you've entered. This could include invoices, warranty documents, or photographs. Uploading documentation can strengthen your home's profile and contribute to its overall score.
7. Submit for Review (if applicable): Depending on the type of update or addition you’ve made, the Pearl app might require you to submit the changes for review. Pearl may need to verify the information before it's officially reflected in your home's profile.

By keeping your home's features up-to-date in the Pearl app, you’ll ensure that your home’s score accurately reflects its performance. This can be particularly beneficial if you’re considering selling or refinancing your home, as an accurate and detailed profile can enhance its marketability and value.
