As per the initial requirements shared by the client, team Apptunix needs to build a user application (Android & iOS, web) for the customers who are looking to buy properties. The user will be able to view the Property listings for buying and renting properties. There will be an in-app Chat option with the help of which they can chat with the seller if they are interested in any property, along with the ability to sell their property (Add post) as well. The user will have the option to save properties as well if they like any property. There will be a real estate agent/company panel as well, where the user can add properties by purchasing subscriptions and feature their listed ads.

There will be an in-app Chat option as well to chat with the interested buyers. The users will be able to view their listing as well. Apart from this, there will be an admin panel to manage all the functions of the Application from where the service owner can monitor the different data and actions executed on the application platform and set restrictions. Service Owner/Admin will be able to assist the users in case of any issue or concern.

The Application is targeted at the users who are either 1. Customers looking to buy/rent properties for different locations. 2. Real estate agent/companies who are listing their properties
