Bob Frady | Sold a Business, Retired, and Started Again
In this episode of Idiot to Genius we chat with Bob Frady, co-founder of PropertyLens a tool described as the "Carfax for houses." PropertyLens pulls together a wealth of data about a home into one comprehensive report, helping buyers know what to look out for before stepping inside. From permits and roof conditions to weather risks, crime data, and even whether a house was once a meth lab, PropertyLens uses AI and deep data sources to give homebuyers an edge in what can otherwise be a stressful, confusing process.
Bob shares stories from real estate agents and homeowners, including challenges with unauthorized ADUs and the importance of knowing about hidden property issues early. He explains how PropertyLens complements traditional home inspections and why buyers should have as much information as possible to make confident decisions.
We also dive into Bob’s entrepreneurial journey starting successful data companies later in life, embracing failure as part of growth, and why hustle and grit matter more than ever in today’s world.
Whether you’re a first-time buyer, agent, or just curious about the behind-the-scenes of home buying, this episode delivers expert insight on navigating one of life’s biggest purchases with confidence.
