Executive Summary

The world is advancing in new technology every day. Every business is becoming digital, more
convenient, and user friendly. In Pakistan, the scope of the Real Estate business is always at its
peak and there are thousands or maybe millions of real estate agents who are involved in this
business but they operate from their offices and most of them do not have any knowledge
about using a website. Every small business can benefit from having a website and online
presence. This is no different for the real estate industry.
So our team came up with a solution in the form of OREAS (Online Real Estate Advertising Site).
OREAS is a web application that is specially designed for the real estate market. It is a generic
web application and can be used by real estate agencies, buyers, sellers, shop owners, for
rental purposes, and many more uses regarding real estate. This website can be the center of
marketing and have all other local directories link to the website. It will be a great place to add
ads for client testimonials and resources for buyers and sellers.
It provides the basic functionalities required for an online real estate advertisement
management system. Users can put ads for any kind of property, build awareness, generate
quality leads, and increase credibility along with the brand, help buyers and sellers throughout
their buying or selling journey, and full information control, a ranking system that will help build
trust.

Chapter 1
Introduction

Faculty of CS&IT, The Superior College Lahore, Pakistan 13

 Project Report: < write Project title here>

Chapter 1: Introduction
This Chapter is all about the introduction of OREAS. It defines what the OREAS project is and its
background, including its previous existing solutions. It also compares OREAS with other
systems available.

1.1. Background
Many real estate agents in Pakistan do not use a proper system for their deals and business.
They operate from their offices, and most do not know about using a website. The world is
becoming more and more digitalized each day, and every small business can benefit from
having a website and online presence. This is no different for the real estate industry, so the
real estate market also needs to become more advanced and stop using old-fashioned ways.
For that, our team created OREAS Online Real Estate Advertising Site with generic features to
ensure customer satisfaction.

1.2. Motivations and Challenges

Our team analyzed the real estate market of Pakistan. It derived that they needed severe
updating because they operate from their offices. Most of them do not know about using a
website. They use old-fashioned ways to manage their other activities, which causes data
inconsistency, paper waste, trust issues for customers, and a lot of management problems.
Hence, we decided to make a generic web-based application, especially for Pakistan's real
estate market. The challenges we faced were collecting extensive data and filtering it efficiently
for our users with a common feature every real estate agent would want and how to motivate
them enough to use this software.

1.3. Goals and Objectives

OREAS is a one-stop-shop for people seeking to buy or sell any kind of real estate property. This
website can be the center of marketing and have all other local directories link to the website.
It will be a great place to add ads for client testimonials and resources for buyers and sellers .

Faculty of CS&IT, The Superior College Lahore, Pakistan 14

 Project Report: < write Project title here>

With a website, our end users can have benefits like: Buyers can preview hundreds of homes
within a few hours from the comfort of their couch. Home sellers can also put ads of their
home's features, and hundreds of shoppers view pictures in the market to buy a new home. It
lets you search for homes and apartments, list yours for sale or rent, tour the home through
pictures and videos when available, connect with agents and lenders, save your searches, and
receive push notifications of updates to your search criteria.
OREAS is developed keeping Pakistan's real estate market in mind because our main objective is
to provide supreme customer satisfaction so that our application can reach as many freelancing
real estate agents and companies as possible.

1.4. Literature Review/Existing Solutions

There have been many online real estate sites available on the internet like Zameen.com. Still,
they are not designed user-friendly, and Pakistan's local real estate agents are unaware of such
websites that provide advertisement services. Also, these sites have trust issues with customers
and are costly.
OUR SOLUTION PRE-EXISTING SOLUTION
We will do proper marketing of OREAS. Those websites lack awareness in
Pakistan.
OREAS is cheaper. They charge a lot of money to these
real estate agencies for advertising
their associated properties.
OREAS is trustworthy. Existing solutions are in controversies
due to bypassing the trust and
confidentiality of data.

1.5. Gap Analysis

There have been many online real estate sites available on the internet, like Zameen.com. Still,
they are not designed user-friendly, and Pakistan's local real estate agents are unaware of such
websites that provide advertisement services. Also, these sites have trust issues with customers

Faculty of CS&IT, The Superior College Lahore, Pakistan 15

 Project Report: < write Project title here>

and are costly plus, our Real estate website will bring convenience to buyers and exposure to
sellers.

OUR SOLUTION PRE-EXISTING SOLUTION

We will do proper marketing of OREAS. Those websites lack awareness in

Pakistan.
OREAS is cheaper. They charge a lot of money to these
real estate agencies for advertising
their associated properties.
OREAS is trustworthy. Existing solutions are in controversies
due to bypassing the trust and
confidentiality of data.
Easy to use for everyone. Not easy to use for a non-technical
person.

1.6. Proposed Solution

Our team came up with a solution in the form of OREAS (Online Real Estate Advertising Site).
OREAS is a web application that is specially designed for the real estate market.
OREAS is a one-stop-shop for people seeking to buy or sell any kind of real estate property. This
website can be the center of marketing and have all other local directories link to the website.
It will be a great place to add ads for client testimonials and resources for buyers and sellers.
Buyers can view hundreds of property images, videos, and features before they ever need to
schedule a live tour. Sellers who post their homes on these sites benefit for the same reason;
hundreds or thousands of prospective buyers can view their homes online without needing to
walk through. Buyers can preview hundreds of homes within a few hours from the comfort of
their couch. Home sellers can also put ads of their home's features, and pictures are viewed by
hundreds of shoppers in the market to buy a new home. It lets you search for homes and
apartments, list yours for sale or rent, tour the home through pictures and videos when
available, connect with agents and lenders, save your searches, and receive push notifications
of updates to your search criteria.

Faculty of CS&IT, The Superior College Lahore, Pakistan 16

 Project Report: < write Project title here>

The other primary purpose this real estate website serves is as a marketing channel for the
professional service providers that contribute to the transaction. Realtors, mortgage
professionals, banks, and inspectors can advertise on the website to generate leads. Users can
also very quickly contact the concerned because we will also place contact information. Overall
our Real estate website will bring convenience to buyers and exposure to sellers.

1.7. Project Plan

Our Plan is to use agile methodology because OREAS will need to be updated later so that is
why agile methodology will be our project plan.
