Shanty Real Estate: Updated Confidential Information for Homebuyer

Shanty is a simulation in which students inhabit the role of either a traditional home buyer or an iBuyer, both bidding on the same condo. The traditional home buyer has access to a “comp sheet” of similar properties that have recently sold, and has done a walkthrough. The iBuyer has access to an automated valuation model powered by real, large-scale market transaction data, but has not seen the property in person. The simulation provides students with an opportunity for experiential learning around the use of data and algorithms to inform market decisions.
This role is the updated confidential information for homebuyers, to be distributed for a second round of play. It is one of eight role documents to be assigned to students in the simulation.
