THE INDEX

Why this MSI reads 100

Draft model

10 of 25 checked public signals observed, covering 100% of the model. The score is public; the signal-by-signal reasons, source documents, and owner details are in LienSuite.

Method and limits. MSI v0.2-cuyahoga-2026-09 weights twenty-five public signals by how much each one changed the recorded four-month arm’s-length sale rate across all 388,000 residential parcels in Cuyahoga County, using the Fiscal Office’s January-2026 records so every owner-side signal predates the sales it is measured against, checked on a holdout the model never saw (the top 0.5% of homes by score sold at 4.9x the countywide rate, the top 1% at 4.2x). City of Cleveland permit, violation and 311 signals apply inside the city; elsewhere the page says so and scores on the county signals.: property-maintenance investigation (cleveland) +26, board-up permit (cleveland) +19, rental-inspection complaint (cleveland 311) +17, vacant-and-distressed / collapsing-structure complaint (cleveland 311) +12, delinquent property tax +11, owner mails out of state +9, bought since 2024 +7, owner mails elsewhere +7, residential building permit (cleveland) +7, rental-registration violation (cleveland) +7, foreclosure flag +5, illegal-use / no-permit complaint (cleveland 311) +5, condemnation notice (cleveland) +3, exterior-maintenance violation (cleveland) +3, two or more units +3, homestead exemption (owner-occupied) +2, exterior-maintenance / weeds complaint (cleveland 311) +2, use / zoning violation (cleveland) -3, exterior permit (cleveland) -4, eviction set-out (cleveland 311) -4, vacant-property complaint (cleveland 311) -7, trade permit (cleveland) -8, owned for 20 years or more -10, delinquent-tax payment plan -10, permit valued at $25,000 or more (cleveland) -11. The "in 100 homes" figure is the model's fitted probability for this combination of signals. It describes homes like this one in aggregate; it is not a claim about this owner's intentions, and it is not LienSuite's paid deal score.
