## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability homepulse-home-improvement-resale-roi-calculator-ab7c7f47
```

Example prompt: What's the resale ROI on a mid-range kitchen remodel in the Chicago, Illinois area? I want to know how much value it adds, what percentage of the cost I'd recoup, and whether doing it myself versus hiring a contractor makes a meaningful difference.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a homeowner or real estate agent needs data-backed resale ROI estimates for a specific home improvement project in a specific region or country, especially when comparing multiple project types or evaluating DIY vs contractor economics. Prefer this over generic home-value APIs when the question is specifically about renovation-to-resale return rather than current home valuation or market pricing.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported project type returns an error or empty result
- Region or country not recognized may fall back to national average with a disclaimer
- International data may be approximated from nearest available benchmark with explicit disclosure
- Missing required parameters (project or region) return a 400-level error
- Data may lag current market conditions if NAR report is not yet updated for the year

## How this service works

Home improvement resale ROI and cost-vs-value by project, region, and country: how much a kitchen remodel, bathroom addition, garage door, and other projects return at resale. For homeowner and real-estate agents. Uses NAR Cost vs Value data for the US; for other countries uses the closest available local renovation-ROI benchmark and says so. Returns resale value added, recouped percentage, DIY-vs-contractor savings, and comparable projects.

## Output

Returns the estimated resale value added by the project, the percentage of project cost recouped at resale, DIY vs contractor cost savings, a list of comparable projects ranked by ROI, and a note on the data source used (NAR Cost vs Value for US; closest local benchmark for other countries).
