The Problem

Housing decisions are some of the highest-stakes financial choices people make, yet the data that drives them is fragmented across dozens of systems — MLS, tax records, climate models, permit databases, and demographic forecasts.

Real estate professionals, first-time homebuyers, housing advocates, and community planners need intelligence tools that are:

  • Comprehensive — not siloed by data type
  • Compliant — safe under Fair Housing law
  • Accessible — no enterprise budget required

How It Works

Access to Housing is a Claude Custom Skill that acts as your PropTech intelligence analyst. Ask a question, and the platform matches it to the right analytical framework, pulls from authoritative data sources, and delivers cited, structured analysis.

Every output includes: signal summary, key findings with evidence, methodology transparency, data caveats, and actionable next steps.

Fair Housing Compliance

Every module is designed to comply with the Fair Housing Act. This is not an afterthought — it is foundational to the architecture.

Core rules:

  • No analysis based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability
  • No proxy metrics that score on demographics
  • School quality scored on proximity/access only — never test scores framed demographically
  • Crime expressed as density-normalized rates — never raw counts
  • Neighborhood comparisons use objective infrastructure metrics only

See Fair Housing Framework for the full compliance documentation.
