Real Estate Buddy

About

Real Estate Buddy gives you superpowers to help you find your dream home. 

It calculates future mortgage repayments in your browser while looking at properties for sale on realestate.com.au , domain.com.au, zillow.com or trulia.com .

It gives you more insights on the properties for sale in your area and gives you more confidence to buy a property that fits your current financial situation.

❓Why Real Estate Buddy?

Not at this stage. If the extension proves to be useful, I may roll out a paid version with enhanced features. At the moment, there is no website, no support besides myself on Twitter and no product to upsell you. It is entirely free.
