Primary Use Cases

1. Property Search & Matching (GS + LSR)

Application: Intelligent property recommendations

Paradigm: GS (listing retrieval) + LSR (preference matching)

Inputs:
- Explicit requirements (beds, baths, price)
- Implicit preferences (lifestyle, commute)
- Past viewing behavior
- Comparable preferences from similar buyers

Output:
- Ranked property matches
- Match explanation
- Trade-off analysis
- Neighborhood insights

Example Interaction:

Buyer: "We need a 4-bedroom house, good schools, 
        under 30 min to downtown, budget $600K"

Agent: Based on your criteria, here are my top recommendations:

1. 123 Oak Street, Maplewood - $589K
   ✓ 4 bed/2.5 bath, top-rated schools (9/10)
   ✓ 22 min to downtown via I-90
   Note: Listed 3 days ago, similar homes sell in 8 days avg

2. 456 Elm Avenue, Riverside - $615K (slightly over)
   ✓ 4 bed/3 bath, excellent schools (8/10)
   ✓ 18 min to downtown, walkable downtown
   Note: Seller motivated, price negotiable

Trade-off: Maplewood has better schools but 
Riverside offers more walkability. What matters more?
