understanding PropFit
how our proprietary scoring system evaluates property potential across multiple dimensions.
what is PropFit?
PropFit is a unified 0–100 score that blends yield potential, growth prospects, livability factors, and risk assessment into a single, actionable metric. it's designed to help you quickly understand how a property compares to market standards and aligns with your investment goals.
unlike single-metric scores, PropFit considers multiple dimensions simultaneously, giving you a holistic view of property potential. a high score indicates strong overall performance across all factors, while lower scores may highlight areas of concern or opportunity.
the four dimensions
yield potential
measures rental income relative to property value. calculated using current market rents and property valuations. higher yields indicate better cashflow potential for investors.
good for: investors seeking positive cashflow, rental property portfolios
growth prospects
evaluates capital appreciation potential based on historical trends, infrastructure developments, demographic shifts, and market dynamics. considers both short-term and long-term growth patterns.
good for: long-term investors, owner-occupiers building equity
livability factors
assesses quality of life elements including proximity to schools, transport, amenities, safety, and neighborhood character. combines objective data with local market perceptions.
good for: owner-occupiers, families, lifestyle-focused buyers
risk assessment
identifies potential concerns including market volatility, oversupply risks, infrastructure changes, environmental factors, and economic sensitivities. lower risk scores indicate more stable investments.
good for: risk-averse investors, conservative buyers
