This is a super interesting idea, and I have been wondering if there was a service like this. Is there something similar to this that recommends the house based on your stage of life? For instance, if you have a kid and your income is X amount, this is probably your best area or even if I wanted to retire with a set standard of living and maybe environment. This paired with home value appreciation that you provide would be awesome!

Love this suggestion! We have been toying with the best way to personalize the properties shown to each individual user. Right now it's just by city, max price and property type.

We also have added things like "near nightlife", "near trendy coffee spots", "near schools" in an attempt to capture what you have suggested here - albeit in a less efficient manner.

A "stage of life" questionnaire would be a great way to encapsulate all those above and more in an easy to interface with UI for the user. Thank you!!

Do you have a way to subscribe to updates? Would love to try out your service when you implement this!
