Houston Location Thesis Scoring Readiness 2026
Visual Readiness Gate
Purpose
This analysis audits evidence coverage for Houston geography pages that may later support Multifamily Location Thesis Scoring inputs. It does not assign final numeric ratings, 0-100 location scores, or investment conclusions. Remaining gaps are evidence gaps, not negative investment calls. Final scores require a later scoring workflow that applies the scoring model to asset-specific facts.

Evidence-Section Audit
Verified on 2026-05-05 against data/location_thesis/houston_neighborhood_backfill_inventory.csv: all 13 pages marked backfilled contain ## Location Thesis Evidence. The 5 not_applicable pages also contain context evidence sections but are not direct resident-location scoring pages. Exceptions: none.
Cross-Market Read
The Houston branch now has standardized evidence-readiness sections for location-thesis review. The material is suitable for screening and IC-prep triage, but final scoring still requires parcel-level proof for safety, supply, physical risk, municipal execution, school fit where relevant, and buyer / lender liquidity.
