Redfin launches Sunscore natural light score

Redfin launched Sunscore, a property-level score that tells home searchers exactly how much natural light a home receives from 0-100. The launch marks an exclusive U.S. partnership with the developer of Sunscore, Shadowmap, which provides a global interactive 3D map for sun-path visualization, shadow analysis and solar planning. “We know from customer feedback that sunlight is a priority for house hunters,” said Ariel Dos Santos, Redfin’s Chief Product and Design Officer. “When you tour a home, you want to see brightly-lit spaces with natural light pouring through windows. Sunscore gives home searchers that information upfront in a simple-to-understand way.”
