## 🚀 Quick Start

```python
# Load the dataset using the Hugging Face datasets library
from datasets import load_dataset

# Load the full dataset
dataset = load_dataset("divar/real-estate-ads")

# Print the first few examples
print(dataset['train'][:5])

# Get dataset statistics
print(f"Dataset size: {len(dataset['train'])} rows")
print(f"Features: {dataset['train'].features}")
```

## 📊 Schema

The dataset includes comprehensive property information organized in the following categories:

### 🏷️ Categorization

- `city_slug`, `neighborhood_slug`: Location identifiers
- `location_latitude`, `location_longitude`: Geographic coordinates
- `location_radius`: Location accuracy radius

### 📝 Listing Details

- `created_at_month`: Timestamp of when the ad was created
- `user_type`: Type of user who posted the listing (individual, agency, etc.)
- `description`, `title`: Textual information about the property

### 💰 Financial Information

- **Rent-related**: `rent_mode`, `rent_value`, `rent_to_single`, `rent_type`
- **Price-related**: `price_mode`, `price_value`
- **Credit-related**: `credit_mode`, `credit_value`
- **Transformed values**: Various transformed financial metrics for analysis

### 🏢 Property Specifications

- `land_size`, `building_size`: Property dimensions (in square meters)
- `deed_type`, `has_business_deed`: Legal property information
- `floor`, `rooms_count`, `total_floors_count`, `unit_per_floor`: Building structure details
- `construction_year`, `is_rebuilt`: Age and renovation status

### 🛋️ Amenities and Features

- **Facilities**: `has_balcony`, `has_elevator`, `has_warehouse`, `has_parking`
- **Luxury features**: `has_pool`, `has_jacuzzi`, `has_sauna`
- **Other features**: `has_security_guard`, `has_barbecue`, `building_direction`, `floor_material`

### 🏨 Short-term Rental Information

- `regular_person_capacity`, `extra_person_capacity`
- `cost_per_extra_person`
- **Pricing variations**: `rent_price_on_regular_days`, `rent_price_on_special_days`, `rent_price_at_weekends`

## 📈 Example Analysis

```python
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns

# Convert to pandas DataFrame for analysis
df = dataset['train'].to_pandas()

# Price distribution by property type
plt.figure(figsize=(12, 6))
sns.boxplot(x='property_type', y='price_value', data=df)
plt.title('Price Distribution by Property Type')
plt.xticks(rotation=45)
plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()

# Correlation between building size and price
plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6))
sns.scatterplot(x='building_size', y='price_value', data=df)
plt.title('Correlation between Building Size and Price')
plt.xlabel('Building Size (sq.m)')
plt.ylabel('Price')
plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()
```

## 💡 Use Cases

This dataset is particularly valuable for:

1. **Price Prediction Models**: Train algorithms to estimate property values based on features

   ```python
   # Example: Simple price prediction model
   from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestRegressor
   from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

   features = ['building_size', 'rooms_count', 'construction_year', 'has_parking']
   X = df[features].fillna(0)
   y = df['price_value'].fillna(0)

   X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2)
   model = RandomForestRegressor(n_estimators=100)
   model.fit(X_train, y_train)
   ```

2. **Market Analysis**: Understand trends and patterns in the real estate market
3. **Recommendation Systems**: Build tools to suggest properties based on user preferences
4. **Natural Language Processing**: Analyze property descriptions and titles
5. **Geospatial Analysis**: Study location-based pricing and property distribution
