Creating county Web Scrapper

Aleks Petrov

Hi Biggerpockets community!

My name is Aleksei, and I’m planning :) to invest in RE.

I live in expensive area, so my steps in RE should be very careful. I’m active listener of BP video podcasts and it is excellent source of information.

While I’m learning theory, I thought what I can do with my knowledge as software developer?

I know that all data about properties is public accessible, but you cannot do search using particular filters. So I decided to write my own web scrapper and create own data base. 

Picked 1 county for pilot project, and in this topic I’ll post updates about challenges in web scrapping.

Please let me know if it is going to be interesting topic, so I’ll keep posting updates.

Thanks BiggerPockets for being so awesome resource!

Best regards, Aleksei.
