I’ve been looking at houses lately and I don’t understand why I can’t get a predicted score on a house. They know what I want by the filters. Why can’t I filter by houses within a 10 minute drive of a grocery store and a public library (two things that are important to me).

I guess it’s a case of why not built it yourself.

Many of the apps allow you to draw polygons on the map. The polygon thing is how they handle the long tail of searches, by giving you DIY functionality.

I just wish having a basic 2D floor plan was a listing requirement/standard. I’ve wasted so much time going to view properties I could have instantly ruled out if I saw the floorplan. Also. This is how I searched for apartments online 20 years ago. Matterport is the new shiny thing and borderline overkill. Nice if you have genuine interest. But during the browsing phase, I prefer the simple 2D format because I can quickly tell if it’s something I’m interested in.
