Samples

Samples are pre-built Custom RAAM profiles — each tuned to a particular buyer's priorities and attached to a real property. They let you see how the site scores things under different weight configurations without going through the Build flow first.

The samples

Eight samples are available on the landing page:

  1. School-Focused Family — schools weighted heavily; suburban priorities.
  2. Value Investor — price-to-quality efficiency on top.
  3. Commute-First Professional — commute access dominant.
  4. Relocation / Out-of-Boston — someone moving to a new metro.
  5. Austin Urban — an urban-Austin priority set.
  6. Denver Urban / Five Points — Denver-specific city priorities.
  7. LA Premium / Bel Air — luxury weighting in a premium market.
  8. Naples Lifestyle — lifestyle + condition weighted for a retirement-oriented search.

How to use them

  1. Open the Samples page from the Custom RAAM landing.
  2. Scan the cards. Each card names the sample, describes its priorities, and attaches a real property it was scored against — complete with the property's address, its resulting RAAM score, and the top three weights that drove it.
  3. Click View Full Analysis on any sample to open the detailed property report that sample produced.
  4. Use the sample as a reference when Building your own profile. The weights the sample used are visible on the detail page.

A worked example

You're a first-time buyer unsure where to set your weights. Open "Value Investor" and read the property that sample scored — note the weights it used and the factor breakdown on the resulting report. The sample isn't your profile, but the shape of its weights (value-heavy, everything else modest) is a starting template. Open Build, mirror the sample's weight pattern, then adjust from there. Your first profile is "Value Investor plus a bump on School Quality because you have kids" — a one-sentence deviation from an opinionated starting point, not a seven-slider cold start.

Samples vs. your own profile

Samples are reference material. They're opinionated, real, and attached to specific properties — but they're not you. The value is in the shape of the weights, not the exact numbers. Build your own profile once you have a shape in mind.
