Real Estate

Hi,

I've built several real estate sites in Joomla and Wordpress. Each one has it's pros & cons and I thought I would look into Drupal for a different real estate project

But in researching I'm finding little in the way real estate resources for Drupal.

As is often the case, it appears as though people have found solutions, but are unwilling to post how their progress was made.

I hope more people become involved in this group to share development tips & tricks.

I am interested in building RDFa features into a number of real estate sites I have worked on. I have a pre-release module that will bridge drupal and MLSpin.com IDX data using property node type. I have been looking for existing namespaces or ontologies, alongs the lines of foaf and dc that would categories real estate or listings. If there is not an existing namespace, then I am interested getting it started. Has anyone found, built or published on?

I am building a site for our Real Estate Firm and have not really found anything I like yet for virtual tours.
What do you all use for building virtual tours? Were going to have video and photos so it needs to be flexible.

I am building a real estate website which needs to email property inquires to agents.

Requirements:
-Users want to inquire about several properties at once, so a cart or flagged list is needed.
-Only one of the agents on the list of inquired properties should be emailed (A property has only one agent).

Workflow:
-User adds several listings to their list.
-User provides contact details and submits the list
-An agent from one of the properties is emailed (to save a customer from dealing with multiple agents).

I'm interested in bulding a website for a real estate investor with Drupal 6.
www.netrift.com offers a property listing module for Drupal 6 called uListing.
See http://ulisting.netriftsolutions.com/ulisting/listing
Has anyone had any experience with it? Would you recommend it?

Thanks in advance for any feedback,

Katy :-)

Soon after I joined the company I currently work for, Precision Intermedia, I was placed to work on a site for a real estate company which was to provide searching of listings through RETS. However, the previous developers were having a bear of a time deciphering the RETS standard; even when we could wrap our head around the documentation, the MLS company seemed to either differ from it in their implementation, or otherwise make things unnecessarily complicated.

Hi everyone,

After a long hiatus from working on the MLS module (http://groups.drupal.org/node/12419), I'm back at it and working on some massive updates/improvements to the module. If any of you have tried to use it, you probably know that it's super confusing, very difficult to use and incredibly fragile. To address these issues I'm overhauling how the module interfaces between VieleRETS and Drupal.

I am a newbie to Drupal and having trouble in searching for the best module for Advanced Search feature (focusing on data search based on a range of price, i.e. 1000-100000 USD). An example of this feature can be found at http://www.housebroker.com.au/search. I've been browsing around the internet and found some interesting modules related to custom search or filtered search such as CCK Facet and rListing.

I would love to know and appreciate your recommendations and experiences about the custom search modules, especially those for Drupal 6. Thanks a lot for help.

Regards,

Budi

I have put together a real estate site for the newspaper I am employed at. It is all done in drupal and looks great in FireFox and Safari but I'm getting some weird spacing issues in IE. I can't seem to find out what is causing this bug. Could anyone take a look at the site in FireFox with FireBug enable and give any suggestions.

The site is:
