We spend a lot of time thinking about the home buying process and assembling data to inform decisions. We've decided to share some of our analysis more broadly. There are 4 major sections: deal economics, schools, commuting, and quality of life.
In a world where everyone has an opinion on home buying, I felt this was super readable and had tons of information that could be processed easily. I shared with many people already! Love the graphs as well and the fact that they're all interactive!
@blackfalcon7 thanks so much! We also feel like most guides are jammed full of opinions, so opted for this choose-your-own-adventure approach. We plan to keep updating this, so let us know if there are any data points you wish were in here.
Take a look at our Homebuying Guide for the Bay Area. We are constantly pulling these types of insights for our members. Like, places to live outside San Francisco that best fit their needs. @hari_viswanathan started collecting all the most helpful information in one place, and so began this guide!
This should be really helpful info to prime you for starting a home search in the Bay Area. The ?makers are happy to answer / discuss any questions or opinions you have!

I like the flexibility that this product gives towards home ownership and the one-stop post purchase experience that is very poor in the industry today.
