Sources and methods

The news coverage on roofsandrents is compiled from published feeds and indexes of established news publications across the region. These sources are selected for their consistent reporting on the housing transaction, covering all sections from renting and buying to market trends and safety. Each article is identified by its original publication, ensuring clear attribution for every story we present.

Our summaries are produced with automated assistance to extract the core facts from each original report. This process rewrites the content into plain, accessible prose while rigorously preserving the original meaning and context. The resulting summary is always credited to the publication where the news first appeared, maintaining a direct link to the source.

When a factual claim appears in only one publication, it is treated as unverified for the purposes of our reference pages. Our system flags such information, and it does not progress into our stable fact tables. This ensures the reference material on roofsandrents is built only from assertions corroborated by multiple reliable reports or official sources.

The site's reference pages, such as those on country rules or city markets, are constructed from these consolidated fact tables. Each page presents stable, verified information on a topic, accompanied by a single credited photograph where available. Both the news coverage and the reference pages are refreshed continuously as new, corroborated information is processed from the source feeds, keeping the content current.
