AI-Powered Real Estate Brokerage Platform

Design 

The project was performed by our company from scratch. Creating the project design, our specialists took into account the business need to display attractive and high-quality photos of property objects with some key information provided right below the pictures. Clear and minimalistic in general, the design allows to focus your attention on property characteristics provided as lists of parameters when reviewing the full information on a house/building. 

Development 

To provide fast operation and prompt request processing on the platform, our frontend developers initially used Vite + ReactJS, while backend development was based on Python (FastAPI). PostgreSQL database was used for storing and processing huge amounts of data necessary to provide the required response for requests. 

Challenges 

At the later stages of the project development, a request for SEO optimization was provided by clients. This required server-side rendering implementation, which, in turn, made the team migrate the project to another technology. That was a serious challenge posing some risks but the team managed to cope with it and ensure proper operation of the platform after migration. Also, this required changing URL system all over the site, which our team performed with quality as well.
