The challenge

What was at stake.

The approach

How we shipped it.

  1. 01

    True monthly cost

    Each home’s payment uses its jurisdiction’s actual property-tax rate, plus HOA, PMI, insurance and Virginia car tax, and the cash to close includes every recording tax.

  2. 02

    Walk to Metro, routed

    Street-routed walk times to the nearest of 98 Metrorail stations and drive times to eight work centers, computed at build time.

  3. 03

    Fast, offline-ready, tested

    Map search with clustering, shareable filters, dark mode and an installable offline shell, built to run on a licensed listing feed and guarded by 573 automated tests.
