Release-based suburb price series, not a live market feed
Use current rent as a starting signal, not as a fixed underwriting truth.
Schools, transport, and hospitals are useful as presence signals, but they still have different source cadences.
Direct signals include Property prices, Market rent, Crime, and Schools. Treat Hospitals, Transport, and Population growth as the main gap before this becomes a stronger decision page.
Use compare before shortlisting so the missing evidence is balanced against nearby suburbs.
