This is an interactive map based on /u/WilliamMcCarty's weekly spreadsheets of new rental & for-sale listings in the /r/LArentals & /r/LosAngelesRealEstate subreddits and at https://www.freelarentals.com/. Just like the actual spreadsheets, you can filter the map based on different criteria, such as
- Monthly rent/List price
- Security deposit cost
- Number of bedrooms
- Number of garage spaces
- Pet Policy
- Square footage
- HOA fees (for-sale properties only)
- and more!
Some additional capabilities are offered, such as a featured MLS photo for the property and a link to the associated MLS listing page (if available).
I also have a page for for-sale properties based on the same kind of spreadsheets posted in /r/LosAngelesRealEstate.
Or you can click the Looking to buy a property instead? button: 
⚠ This website is mobile-friendly but I highly recommend using an actual computer or tablet for the best experience
- BeautifulSoup (webscraping MLS photos and links)
- Dash Leaflet (displaying the map and graphing the markers)
- Dash Bootstrap Components (the website layout and icons)
- GeoPy (geocoding coordinates via the Google Maps API)
- ImageKit (resizing MLS photos into a standard size on the fly)
- Pandas (handling and manipulating the rental property data for each address)
I made a post detailing my idea, progress, challenges, etc.
