Comprehensive iPhone App specifically targetted toward Estate Agents in UK. Property data would be sourced via a MySQL database online.
The following is an overview of some of the features required for this app:
Search in Current Location - using the GPS functionality the user can perform a search and see what properties are available for sale and rent around their exact location.
Map Property Location - The user would have the option to map a route (via Google Maps) direct to any selected property (for a viewing). This route should take account of live traffic conditions when calculating journey times (and offer alternative routes if required).
Map View, Satellite View, Hybrid View and a list of turn by turn instructions should be included. Essentially, it’s a Sat Nav direct to an property instruction.
Refine Your Search Results - See the initial results (in list or map view) and refine them to match precise criteria, be it sales/rent, price (to/from), bedrooms or location (possibility to include “nearby amenities” like bus stops, train/tube/tram stations, supermarkets, schools etc?).
Property Search Results on a Map - As well as displaying search results in a list format you can select results from the built-in Google map, allowing you to move around the map to view properties within the scope of your search and also map directions to reach a property.
Read a full overview of each property - save the ones that make the grade, email them onward or contact estate agents directly (by phone/email) to arrange a viewing. Property details would include pinch enabled images (in slideshow format), Floorplan, an EPC Graph (and perhaps a brochure?) and there would also, be links to features such as "Request a Viewing" and “Mortgage Calculator” (see below).
Mortgage Calculator – with any property selected, the user can find out what sort of mortgage costs would be associated with the potential property purchase via an in-built mortgage calculator.
Easy Navigation - Using the iPhone accelerator, the user can change the orientation of the iPhone to landscape, and simply swipe to view previous and next images.
Candidates would ideally, be based in Romania but this isnt a deal breaker. Full project specification available for serious candidates (portfolio of past, relevant works would be advantageous).
