A Clearer Compass: Picki’s New AVM Mid Cuts Bias ~82%

By Picki|12 December 2025

If you’ve ever sailed in light fog, you know the value of a steady compass. Property investing is similar—you need a price signal that doesn’t wobble when conditions change.

We just released an update to our AVM (the “Mid”). Against a third-party model that includes recent sales, the new Mid:

  • Cuts average difference from −3.13% to −0.56% (~82% less bias).
  • Keeps consistency effectively the same: 41 vs 40 results within ±10%.
  • Moves you closer to market reality without chasing noise.

Why should you care? Entry price is leverage. Getting even 1–2% closer to fair value at purchase compounds through equity growth, refinance options, and exit flexibility. Think of it like shaving friction off a flywheel—it spins up faster with the same push.

What we didn’t do: we didn’t jack up variance to chase a headline. The job is not to “look clever,” it’s to help you make confident decisions on actual properties in real suburbs with real money on the line.

The best part: it’s live now. Open a suburb, open a property, and use the clearer compass.
