Our Methodology
Built on principles of transparency, data-backed analysis, and long-term thinking.
Core Principles
Data-backed, not opinion-based
Every insight is grounded in verifiable data from public sources, historical records, and aggregated market signals.
Long-term signals > short-term noise
We focus on infrastructure, employment, and development patterns that drive value over years, not months.
Transparency over accuracy claims
We explain our methodology, acknowledge limitations, and help you understand the reasoning behind every score.
Data Sources
We aggregate insights from multiple public and verified sources:
- Public datasets (census, employment, infrastructure)
- Historical development records
- Aggregated market signals
- Government planning documents
- Economic development reports
We do not use proprietary or confidential data. Our methodology is transparent and reproducible.
Limitations & Risks
We believe in honest communication about what we can and cannot predict:
- Market uncertainty: Real estate markets are influenced by unpredictable factors including economic shifts, natural disasters, and global events.
- Policy changes: Government policies, zoning changes, and tax reforms can significantly impact property values.
- Macro-economic risks: Interest rates, inflation, and broader economic conditions affect all real estate markets.
Placely provides insights based on historical patterns and current signals, but cannot guarantee future outcomes. Always consult with financial and legal advisors before making investment decisions.
