The Challenge
The Bangladesh real estate market lacked transparent, data-driven valuation tools. Property prices varied wildly based on subjective assessments, making it difficult for buyers, investors, and developers to make informed decisions. Existing methods relied on agent estimates with no systematic analysis of the factors that truly drive property values in different neighborhoods.
The Solution
We built a comprehensive ML pipeline that collected and cleaned thousands of property transaction records across Dhaka and major cities. Feature engineering captured location-specific factors, property characteristics, proximity to amenities, and market trend indicators. Multiple algorithms were evaluated before selecting XGBoost as the optimal model, achieving an 89% R² score on holdout data.
The trained model was deployed as a FastAPI service, with a React-based web interface allowing users to input property details and receive instant valuations with confidence intervals and key value drivers.
