What's Broken About Filter-Based Search
Traditional real estate portals are filter machines. You set price, beds, baths, zip — and get hundreds of results ranked by newest listing. The problem: filters don't understand trade-offs, lifestyle priorities, commute needs, school preferences, or the feeling you're looking for. 'Good schools near the train under $800K' is not a filter. It's a life decision.
How AI Parses Your Intent
MyLux's AI reads your prompt and extracts: location (city, county, neighborhood, or commute zone), budget (with flexibility awareness — 'around $700K' vs 'under $700K'), property type, lifestyle signals (schools, commute, backyard, walkability), and investment signals if you're an investor. It builds a complete picture of what you actually want.
Scoring and Ranking vs. Sorting by Date
After parsing your intent, MyLux scores every live listing on how well it matches across: budget fit, size fit, location fit, feature match, and freshness. Instead of showing the newest listings first (which biases toward new-to-market regardless of fit), AI search shows you the closest matches first — regardless of when they listed.

Investor Mode — Deal Scoring at Scale
For investors, MyLux computes a flip score and rental score for every listing. These scores consider: price vs. neighborhood median (value gap), days on market (motivation), property type, fixer signals in the listing, transit access, and price drop history. Instead of hunting for deals manually, the AI surfaces the highest-potential opportunities.
The Refresh Concept
One underused superpower: instead of redoing the same search repeatedly, MyLux lets you save a search and refresh it — seeing exactly what's new, what dropped in price, and what went under contract since you last looked. It's a real-time lens on a constantly moving market.
