The Seller score.

Weighted for pricing power and exit value. A seller's world doesn't think in “affordability” — it thinks in leverage, clearing speed, and what the next wave of inventory looks like.

§ 01 · Sub-score weights

What goes in, at what weight.

Leverage
Heavy weight

How much pricing power sellers have right now — sale-to-list, share over list, days-on-market, price-cut share.

Exit Value
Heavy weight

The dollar proposition of selling today — recent price trend and longer-term appreciation.

Absorption
Moderate weight

How fast the market is clearing — sales volume, pending listings, migration inflow.

Supply Pressure
Light weight

Future competition for your listing — inventory and new-permit pressure.

§ 02 · Why these sub-scores differ

A seller's question isn't “can I afford this?”

The composite treats rising prices as partially risky. For sellers, rising prices are the whole point. The sub-score names intentionally differ from the composite because a seller's mental model is “can I command my price and close?” Leverage and absorption capture that; affordability doesn't.

§ 03 · What this score isn't

Not a listing price. Not a promise of speed.

Leverage conditions can shift inside a single refresh cycle; days-on-market trends are the earliest warning you'll see here. The score should inform a listing conversation, not replace one.
