Inspired by the quintessential House Prices Starter Competition and the popular Melbourne Housing Dataset, this dataset captures 4K+ condominium unit listings on the Malaysian housing website mudah.my.

Like the above datasets, your job is to predict the house prices given certain parameters.

The data was scraped directly from the website using this data collection notebook. I might adapt the code to include houses as well in the future, but scraping the data takes a while due to having to wait for the website to load and having to timeout to account for CloudFlare's protections.

Note: This data is a lot less clean and organized than the data in the two datasets mentioned above. However, this is a good opportunity to practice data cleaning techniques, as this is something that is often overlooked on Kaggle. That being said, I made a starter notebook that goes through the data cleaning steps and outputs a fairly cleaned version of the dataset.
