Apartment Scout is an automated apartment search workflow that pulls listings from multiple sources, filters them against defined criteria, and surfaces the highest-fit options in a more structured way than manually checking sites one by one.
Apartment Scout
Automated listing pipeline that collects, filters, and ranks apartments based on real-world search criteria.
Overview
Problem
Apartment hunting across multiple listing sites is repetitive and noisy. I wanted a workflow that could collect listings, apply practical filters like neighborhood, size, and pet-friendliness, and surface the best matches without constant manual searching.
