Hi everyone,
I'm currently embarking on an exciting venture: launching an online real estate marketplace for my country. Surprisingly, such a platform doesn't exist here yet. Only a handful of foreign real estate agents have their own websites, while local agents primarily advertise through various Facebook groups and pages. Clearly, there's room for more efficiency.
After conducting some research in these groups, I found that both agents and citizens are receptive to the idea of a centralized website for buying and renting properties. Thus, I began this journey. However, my technical skills are limited, and using a no-code platform seems the most feasible option, especially considering my budget constraints.
I've nearly completed my MVP on Bubble, but I've hit a technical snag related to Google Maps API that no one on fivver has been able to resolve yet. I've even considered purchasing a website clone script of Zillow to kickstart my real estate marketplace project. But....before diving deep into this website clone script and start all over again, I want to try Flutterflow first.
I have a crucial functionality aspect that I need to clarify. My project's core feature involves listing houses with their respective coordinates and displaying these properties on a map. This functionality is essential for providing a user-friendly experience where potential buyers or renters can easily locate properties of interest on an interactive map snce we don't have adresses in this country.
Could anyone with experience in FlutterFlow advise if the following are possible within this platform?
Storing property listings along with their geographical coordinates instead of adresses - Is there a straightforward way to input and store property data, including latitude and longitude, in FlutterFlow's database system?
Displaying these properties on a map - Can FlutterFlow integrate with map services (like Google Maps) to visually represent these properties based on their stored coordinates?
I would greatly appreciate any guidance, tips, or even references to tutorials/documentation that could help me implement this feature. Ensuring this functionality can be seamlessly integrated into FlutterFlow will be a deciding factor in proceeding with this platform for my project.
Thank you in advance for your time and insights. Looking forward to your valuable feedback!
