Homes their owners chose to put on the board, ranked by an AI pre-valuation worked out with the owner. Archie asks you about your home — with your permission — and shows its math, instead of guessing from bulk-bought data. Every entry is owner-provided and admin-reviewed before it appears, and exact addresses are never shown.
Most home-value websites guess what your home is worth from data they bought about it — and the owner is the last person they ask. Archie's home leaderboard flips that around. Every home here was submitted by its owner, who answered Archie's pre-valuation interview about the home's real condition, renovations, and facts only an owner knows. The value band on the board is the band from that report, with the math shown inside it.
Getting on the board is permission-first. The owner confirms it's their home, and where public records allow, Archie cross-checks the address against the government's own file — then says honestly what was checked. An Archie admin reviews every entry, first submissions and edits alike, before anything appears publicly. What shows is only what the owner chose to show: a display name, city and state, a few highlights, and the value band. The exact street address never appears.
The value bands are educational estimates, not appraisals — the same honest framing the pre-valuation report itself carries. Maybe you think your home has been undervalued elsewhere; maybe you've overvalued it yourself. The leaderboard is a way to find out where you actually stand, using your own answers and cited market data, and to show it off if you like the result.
Flexer accounts exist for exactly this: a free, immediate account type whose two tools are the pre-valuation and the leaderboard entry. No selling pressure, no buyer tools you didn't ask for. If you later decide to sell or shop, the same account grows with you through Archie's normal account paths — never a second signup.
