Project Objective
Build a baseline predictive model to estimate house prices based on property characteristics and evaluate the model’s explanatory power.
Dataset Overview
- Source: Kaggle (Boston housing dataset)
- Observations: Residential properties
- Target variable: House price (USD)
Key features
- Number of bathrooms
- Number of bedrooms
- House size (sqft)
- Lot size (sqft)
- Zip code
Model Specification
- Model: Multiple Linear Regression
- Training/Test split: 80% / 20%
- Evaluation metric: R² score
Key Results
- Test R²: 0.73
- The model explains approximately 73% of the variance in house prices.
