Description

Redfin.com offers real estate listing and public records information for free. The information is high quality but usability could be improved. One desirable thing is to know all the public records for homes surrounding the home that you are interested in buying. This can be obtained from public records. This project is about gathering such information from various location and displaying it in a user-friendly way on google maps to users.

Technologies

Ruby/Rails, Google maps, jQuery

Tasks

I think we can breakdown the project this way:

• scraping redfin.com for relevant information
• writing adapters for various counties to fetch public records information
• displaying information on a website - using google maps
