Estimation Methodology

This estimator uses a hedonic pricing model based on research from the National Bureau of Economic Research and institutional AVM methodologies. Adjustments are applied to the base market rent (Zillow ZORI) using empirically-derived elasticities for crime (NBER: -0.15 to -0.35 per 1% crime increase), school quality (GreatSchools: ~2.5% per rating point), walkability (Walk Score: 5-25% tier premiums), property age (0.5-0.9%/year depreciation), and area income. Confidence range is ±8%, reflecting typical AVM accuracy for rental estimates.
