What the Score Is Not
Not influenced by builders
Builders do not pay to improve their score. The score is computed from external data sources independently of any builder relationship.
Not based on listing photos
Staged photography and virtual renders are not inputs. Physical site visits by our field team supplement data for shortlisted properties.
Not a price forecast
The score reflects current investment quality. It does not guarantee appreciation. Past performance of similar corridors is shown separately.
Not static
Scores are recalculated quarterly as new RERA data, transaction records, and infrastructure milestones become available.
