I spent this morning browsing through the apartment Craigslist ads of all of the cities that we are currently working in and began to wonder something. If I in fact were a prospect looking for an apartment in one of these numerous cities and I own an Iphone, surely there is an app that makes the search not only easier, but more interactive for its users.
With this thought in mind, I opened a new browser to Google and typed in "iphone apartment search" to see just what exists out there in the application world. There were actually numerous results that came up, but the one that really caught my attention was the application called PadMapper.
PadMapper's sole purpose is to aim to make the apartment search "less painful by letting you see where the apartments are on a big Google map, and using the filters located in the box on the lower left to eliminate listings that you're not interested in" (per PadMapper's website About section). Based upon their definition on their site, PadMapper was basically verbatim of what I was out to find. The most relevant piece of information about their site that especially intrigued me is the fact that Craigslist is one of the main websites that PadMapper pulls from!
Seeing the application in action is a must, because the map is user friendly and interactive, allowing the user to be able to see with a pin-point where exactly the apartment is located.
Great app!
