| Are you planning to deal with all the complexities that each market brings? For example, compare with one of the standard German property search websites: https://www.immobilienscout24.de/ and here are some things that I, personally, would or have used when searching for property that I don't immediately see on your site: For apartments: * Searching by floor (or below or above floor) * Searching by presence/absence of elevator For all property types: * Searching by rented / unrented status (evicting tenants for your own use is hard) * Searching by build phase, if you're interested in new-build properties * Searching by build year (some people prefer Altbaus, some consider them the work of the devil) * Searching by heating type (underfloor vs radiator) * Searching by rooms, not bedrooms. In Germany, a 1-room flat is a Studio Apartment and doesn't have a bedroom. * Display of and searching by fees when buying (typically this is searching for "no estate agent fee") * Display of and searching by Warm & Cold rent when renting * Ability to search by state & city (at a bare minimum, and note that state affects how much property tax has to be paid when purchasing) I think most countries are going to have a lot of little quirks like this, and it's going to be a hard sell to get people to switch over until you've got a lot of these in place for each country. I know that I've used international sites like this in the past and ultimately abandoned them because they either made it too difficult to find what I wanted, or there just weren't enough properties on there. |
Thanks for your feedback, really appreciated!
