CarstenBHi,
I am looking for an app, a portal, or something similar where I can view and ideally manage or schedule all the necessary maintenance and related tasks for my house. I could probably gather everything from Google and put it into an Excel sheet or calendar, but maybe someone has a recommendation for a "home manager" app or another approach. Thanks!
Best regards,
Carsten

I would look towards tools designed for agile software projects or Kanban boards.
For example, there is one called "ClickUp," which I believe is free for personal use on a small scale.
To me, that tool has become too bulky; I use Trello for this kind of thing.
Alternatively, you could go all out and use Jira from Atlassian.

Thank you for the quick responses.
I use Trello for personal to-dos and projects, while Jira is and should remain work-related.
Of course, I would need to know what the tasks are. To be honest, I’m not 100% sure about that. It’s also partly about having a place or platform in the form of an app where I can basically manage my house. Above all, a selection of the most important tasks related to home maintenance, renovation ideas, property value development, and so on.
Is that understandable?

Otherwise, I don’t think you’ll find anything ready-made there – except, of course, for the management tools.
What tasks are you really looking at? Heating maintenance: a recurring appointment with your service company; filter replacement for the ventilation system: a date in the calendar – you either do it yourself or hire a technician again. Taxes: you’re already reminded if you haven’t set up a standing order yourself 😉 Insurance: the same thing.
So, I don’t really see what you want to "automate" there.
