What is a 3D house rendering?
A 3D house rendering is a realistic image of a home that doesn't exist yet. Traditional rendering studios charge hundreds to thousands of dollars and take weeks. Before You Build uses AI trained to stay accurate to your plan, keeping your rooflines, window placement and proportions while adding real materials, lighting and landscaping.
Who uses it
Homeowners planning a custom build, families comparing stock house plans, builders showing clients a finished look, and anyone deciding between finishes like board-and-batten vs. brick or black vs. white windows.
How it works
1) Upload a photo or JPG of your elevation. 2) Add details — siding, windows, roof, trim, stone, and location. 3) Get your photorealistic rendering, ready to download and share with your builder.
