Yeah these things are a lot more involved that the customer realises.
A simple implementation would be doable by overlaying one image on to of another (in JavaScript), and providing settings for scale and position.
But you won't be able to adjust for perspective this way, and so would need to require that both pictures be taken looking dead ahead.
But although a relatively simple impliemntation may be possible, your results will be crappy, so I'd suggest unless there's a serious budget for development of the app it's probably not worth the effort.
My recommendation would be a really good gallery showing previous work (maybe even case studies?), ideally with as many examples as possible for each type of house (terraced, detached, different brick colours etc).
That way the customer can find a similar property and see what they like.
