Built on powerful data sources
These additional costs can impact borrower behavior and loan performance, yet have traditionally been challenging to measure with precision.
Understand what drives affordability and risk
Traditional loan models often overlook the full cost of owning a home. While principal and interest are fixed and disclosed, other essential costs like property taxes, insurance, and utilities can vary dramatically by location - and are rarely disclosed with the same transparency.
Housing Affordability Analytics solves that challenge
