BlandRico Realty — Philippine Real Estate Marketplace
A curated real estate marketplace connecting property owners with buyers across 80+ cities in the Philippines, featuring map-based search, tiered listings, and verified direct messaging.
Overview
BlandRico Realty is a Philippine-first real estate marketplace built around a simple promise: "find a home worth coming back to." It lets property owners list condos, houses, townhouses, lots, and commercial spaces across 80+ Filipino cities, while buyers discover them through a fast, geolocation-aware search experience.
The Problem
The Philippine property market is fragmented across Facebook groups, broker WhatsApps, and generic classifieds — none of which let buyers filter by neighborhood radius or trust that a listing is genuine. Owners, meanwhile, have no lightweight way to publish a polished listing without going through a brokerage.
What We Built
A Next.js storefront paired with an editorial approval queue. Owners sign up, post up to 5–20 properties (depending on their tier) with up to 10 photos each, and the listing goes live within 24 hours after a human review. Buyers drop a pin on the map and pull listings within a 1–50 km radius, then message verified sellers directly — no spam, no scraping, no middleman.
Key features
- Map-based radius search with category filters (condo, house, townhouse, lot, commercial)
- Tiered listing plans (Free, Pro, Agent) with image and listing-count quotas
- 24-hour editorial approval workflow keeps the marketplace clean
- Verified buyer-to-seller direct messaging
- Image-optimized listing detail pages with responsive carousels
- Server-rendered, SEO-optimized property pages for organic discovery
