The gap

Real estate professionals and seekers need a map-centric browsing experience that maintains zoom levels, filters, and context. Current apps like Realtor.com and iOverlander suffer from erratic zooming and restrictive district boundaries that disrupt the workflow of searching for properties across broad regions.

What people say

PGoogle Play (US)1Aug 10, 2026

“error 403 doesn't let you look at propertys anymore. and it's 2026 and they still have the app programmed to only let you see two feet off the ground before you get a too far out and it sucks so bad it can't find properties. not sure why you can't zoom all the way out or at leat most of the way out and see everything available from there. that would make searching so much easier for those of us who don't have our exact neighborhood already picked out before we download the app.”

Cannot zoom out on the map to see all available properties in a region, forcing users to already know their exact neighborhood

“annoying that as of late something changed and map view of properties for sale zooms way out to include unwanted area homes shown and when I focus back in map is automatically zoomed out each time”

Map view of properties automatically zooms out, losing the user's focused area
