Automated Land Valuation Reports for a Saudi Real Estate Brokerage

This is a licensed real estate brokerage in Saudi Arabia.

Valuing a piece of land properly means finding the deals that closed nearby, working out the price per square metre, and writing it up in a report a client can rely on. Done by hand, that's slow, careful work every single time.

The data is the other problem. A valuation is only as good as the transactions behind it. Old bulk registers go out of date, and a report built on stale numbers can point a client the wrong way.

The goal was a report as good as the ones the brokerage prepared by hand, built from current data, without starting from scratch each time.

Someone at the brokerage drops in the location from Google Maps and types the plot area. The tool pulls the relevant transactions, does the calculations and puts the report together.

Each report starts with just those two inputs.

We validated the tool against the brokerage's own work. We took a report the brokerage had prepared manually and ran the same land through the tool. The deal count matched exactly. So did the average price per m².

That test mattered to us as much as to them. A valuation tool that's fast but wrong is worse than no tool. Matching a careful manual report, number for number, is what gave everyone confidence in it.

Having both languages built in means the same report works for Arabic-speaking and English-speaking clients.
