The regex above is one signal we're using. We also look at relative price per sqft and a number of other factors. We could do a little blogpost that goes in-depth on our algorithm if there's interest. We've also tried some fun stuff like running TFIDF on the descriptions [1].

- joshuaheard 12y agoThis could be a valuable tool. I like the clean website too. I don't see an About page. It would be interesting to see who is doing this and what you plan to do with it.

We'd be happy to help with the offer and transaction for any home in California, but we're also happy just to provide free tools for home buyers.
- sandGorgon 12y agocould you describe the way you are running TF-IDF on the listings - are you pushing them into Solr/Elasticsearch and then firing a query with the same description to see which scores rank ? Would love to see your query.
