Premise



Even though there are countless apartment-locating sites on the Web today, there are very few that are fast, user-friendly, thought-through and informative sources of apartment related information.

Most of currently available apartment-locating sites are highly commercial in nature and ether charge apartment communities for hosting their listings on-line or request a locator commission when a web site visitor signs a lease.

Needless to say that not every apartment community is willing to pay for being simply displayed on-line on somebody's web site.

Moreover, over a half of apartment communities in the US don't pay a locating commission for various reasons. This makes those communities (however interesting they are for potential residents) unattractive for any commission-based web site which in turn results in those properties being filtered out and hidden from on-line visitors.



Project Objectives

We challenged ourselves with developing a free, searchable, easy to navigate apartment directory covering the entire United States.

The aim of EveryAptMapped.com is to eventually collect and display the information about every apartment community in the US.

Most importantly, we are a FREE informational resource and display any apartment community information no matter whether a specific community pays a referral commission or not.


Project Origins

For 7 years (1999-2006) we were sole developers of the largest on-line apartment locating site in Texas.

We are no longer associated with that Texas company, but having built an on-line apartment locating system from ground up we realized that there are a number of limitations that are imposed upon a commercial apartment locating company.

Thus, EveryAptMapped.com is a free apartment locating resource supported by our personal funds rather than an apartment-locating commission.


Technology

EveryAptMapped.com is built utilizing Microsoft ASP.NET technology as well as our proprietary methods of database design and access.
