How accurate are Navo's cost estimates?
Our cost estimates are built from extensive research into Australian renovation costs, stress-tested against experienced project managers and builders. Accuracy improves the more detail you provide about your renovation scope. We always recommend treating Navo's figures as a strong starting point and validating with your own trade quotes before committing to a purchase.
Do I need prior renovation knowledge?
No. Navo is built so that you answer simple questions about what you want to renovate, not technical questions about construction costs. Our proprietary calculation engine translates your renovation vision into a financial picture. You bring the property knowledge and instincts. Navo handles the numbers.
Is this for professionals or first-timers?
Both. Experienced flippers use Navo to validate their instincts faster and run more deals at scale. First-time renovators use it to understand whether a project is financially viable before they commit. The platform is designed to be immediately useful whether you are on your first renovation or your fiftieth.
Is there a mobile app?
Yes. Navo is built as a mobile-first platform and works on iOS and Android via your browser. You can run a feasibility, check your live project margin, and manage your team from your phone on site. A dedicated native app is on the roadmap.
Which Australian states does Navo support?
Navo works Australia-wide. Comparable sales data loads automatically for NSW properties. For all other states, you enter your own comparable sales and Navo runs the full analysis from there. Automatic comparable sales for all states is coming soon. Suburb insights, demographics, and market data are available nationwide.
What Australian property data does Navo use?
Navo integrates suburb-level insights drawn from ABS data and other Australian sources, including demographic data, median price trends, population growth, age distribution, and household composition. Comparable sales data is automatically available for NSW properties. We will always be transparent about what data is being used in each analysis.
Is my data private and secure?
Yes. Your project data, financial figures, and property information are private to your account and never shared with other users or third parties. We are bound by the Australian Privacy Act 1988. We use enterprise-grade encryption and Supabase infrastructure. Full details are in our
Privacy Policy, which we have written to actually be readable.
Can contractors access my project?
Yes, but only what you choose to share. You control exactly which parts of your project a contractor can see. They can access their scope of work, upload quotes and invoices, and communicate with you — but they cannot see your financials, your other projects, or your overall budget unless you explicitly share those. Role-based access is built in from day one.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
Your data stays accessible until the end of your billing period. After cancellation, we retain your data for 12 months so you can reactivate without losing your project history. After 12 months, personal data is deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You can request deletion at any time by emailing
hello@navosuite.com.
How does the founding member discount work?
The Founding 50 are the first 50 subscribers. They lock in 50% off the full subscription price for the lifetime of their account — as long as they stay subscribed. Cancel or pause and the founding rate is forfeited permanently. The discount applies to the plan you sign up on. Upgrading to a higher plan is billed at full price. Once the Founding 50 fills, we will announce what comes next.
Can I switch between monthly and annual billing?
Yes. You can switch between monthly and annual billing at any time. Annual billing saves an additional 20% on top of your founding rate. If you are on the Founding 50 tier, your founding discount applies to both billing cycles — monthly at 50% off or annual at an additional 20% off that rate.
Can I upgrade my plan later?
Yes, but note that upgrades are charged at the full (non-founding) price for the higher tier. Your founding discount is locked to the plan you sign up on. If you think you might need more projects in the future, it is worth joining at the Developer tier while the founding rate is available.
How does the referral programme work?
When you sign up you get a unique referral link. Share it with anyone you think would benefit from Navo. When they sign up on a paid plan, they get $10 off their first month automatically. Once they have been on a paid plan for 30 days, $10 credit is added to your account and applied to your next invoice. You can earn one referral credit per calendar month with no annual cap. Credit cannot be exchanged for cash.

Can I combine the founding discount, referral credits, and affiliate commission?
Yes, and they are simpler than they look. Your founding member discount is your base subscription discount, locked in permanently. Referral credits ($10 per successful referral) are earned separately and applied as a credit against your next invoice — they do not change your founding discount. The affiliate partner programme is entirely separate and operates between Navo and the referring partner. It has no effect on what you pay as a subscriber.
Is there a free trial?
There is no free trial, but there is a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are not happy with Navo within the first 30 days, we will refund you in full, no questions asked. This applies to all plans and is backed by Australian Consumer Law.
Is Navo an Australian company?
Yes. Navo is built and operated by Yapa Technologies Pty Ltd, incorporated in New South Wales, Australia (ABN 21 697 117 936). We are subject to Australian Consumer Law, the Privacy Act 1988, and all relevant Australian regulations. Our 30-day money-back guarantee is backed by law. If something goes wrong, contact us at
hello@navosuite.com and we will make it right.
When does Navo fully launch?
Navo is live and accepting founding members now. The Founding 50 tier offers 50% off for life. Once it fills we will announce what comes next — drop your email on the homepage to be the first to know.
Who built Navo?
Navo was built by a husband-and-wife team. One has spent over a decade in construction forecasting backed by undergraduate and masters degrees in economics. The other has almost 15 years leading data and analysis teams working with big data at scale. We built Navo because we were tired of pulling renovation numbers together manually and saw that experienced flippers were making million-dollar decisions with spreadsheets while institutional developers had access to sophisticated financial modelling tools.
