Layer 3: Advanced (Proactivity & Leadership)
At this stage, homes become future-ready and proactive.
- Maintenance: Predictive cost estimators, digital twin of the home, AR/VR DIY repair coaches.

Outcome: Families become leaders in their community, inspiring others by example.
How to Use the Framework
You don’t need to master everything at once. Start with the Basic layer, grow into the Intermediate, and work toward the Advanced as your confidence builds.
