Predicting housing prices in San Diego County. The intended public benefit from the project is to provide further insights and guidance to homeowners, investors and government sectors.
The baseline project went a long way in meeting this business challenge. Several important factors that determine the house values, such as regionality (costal, inland etc.), proximity of schools, seasonality and house size and stability in the San Diego county are built in the baseline model.
We intend to expand this to include:
Macroeconomic factors: mortgage rates
Microeconomic/regional factors, such as employment, migration, Crime
Our second challenge is to improve the housing price forecast models and hence accuracy of price prediction by 10% over baseline.
