Casabrix: a purpose-built tool to manage your apartment/home search

Hacker News

Hi everyone! I’m Kevin and I’m a developer who is obsessed with creating things that are actually useful for people. My most recent apartment search in Chicago was awful, and I’ve spent the past couple months trying to find ways to make the process less painful ( https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/apartmentscom-red-f... , https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/fast-filter-chicago... , https://github.com/kloovin112358/ApartmentsThatDontSuck ). But one of the most interesting problems with apartment hunting was the lack of technology to help me keep track of the different apartment options I was considering. Previously I just copy/pasted information from Apartments.com into a spreadsheet, which resulted in me constantly flipping over to Google Maps. But the real kicker came during apartment tours, and I would totally forget the details on the unit I was there to see (and Google Sheets on mobile isn’t particularly user-friendly). Then I would forget what questions I wanted to ask, and leave the tour without complete information. That’s why I made Casabrix. A spreadsheet interface with maps integration on web, a mobile-optimized view for iOS and Android, and a Chrome extension to scrape Apartments.com or Zillow listings. I would love your feedback on what features you’d need to see in Casabrix to consider using it.
