Custom RAAM Valuation

Custom RAAM is the core tool on the site. It turns "what matters to me about where I live" into a reusable scoring model that works across markets, neighborhoods, and specific properties.

The core idea

Most real-estate scores are one-size-fits-all. A single number rolls up cost, schools, commute, weather, and whatever else the model weighs — on somebody else's weights. Custom RAAM inverts that: you set the weights, and every place the site scores gets scored against your version of "good."

The workflow

Build your profile. Start at Building your profile and complete four short steps — profile basics, weights, requirements, review. You can revise any of it later.
Score something. With a profile saved, any market, neighborhood, or specific property gets scored relative to your weights. Paste a listing URL on your Dashboard, or run a fast Quick Score on any Zillow link.
Go deeper. Use Deep Analysis for a long-form, 12-section read on a specific property. Use Advisor for a persona-driven expert chat when you have a specific question.
Compare. Put two to five properties side by side with Compare. The output is a shareable Comparison Report.
Save. Everything you score lands on your Dashboard and can be grouped into Wishlists.

Reading a Custom RAAM score

A RAAM score is between 0 and 100 and is always relative to your profile. A 72 on your profile and a 72 on someone else's are not the same number — they encode different priorities. That's the point.

Score bands used site-wide:

80+ — strong fit.
60–79 — solid, worth comparing against alternatives.
40–59 — mixed; look at the factor breakdown to see which factor is pulling the score down.
Below 40 — not a fit against the current profile.

Common questions

Do I need to build a profile to try it? No — Quick Score lets you see what the tool looks like anonymously. You'll need a profile for real scores.
Can I have more than one profile? One profile per account. Change your weights any time; everything you've already scored re-scores automatically.
Does Custom RAAM see my data? Only what you type into your profile and the properties you choose to score. See the privacy policy for details.
