On what to write / raise a real estate catalog?

Question

Web development

Good afternoon!

Tell me, please, on what to write/raise your real estate catalog for a real estate agency?

Requirements:
- base of objects of several types: house, villa, land. Object Availability Calendars. Maintaining orders within the system. A bunch of filters on the database of objects.
- Preferably an open, popular solution, for which there will be a large developer market in a few years
- Speed ​​of development. Perhaps there are some modern popular engines on which such a task is solved with half a kick.
- There is a budget, there are no developers yet.

What do you advise?

Answer 1

IMHO, it is the studio that is needed here, and not some individual specialists.
Because such a site needs, first of all, a strong front. His backing is simple, like a stool, anyone will write it on the same Lara. But a polished interface that is user-friendly and does not stack back requests is a task. Yes, you still want a design that is recognizable, and you will need to somehow combine beauty with functionality. And if you harness three freelancers into this business (designer, front-ender and back-ender) - most likely, it will end according to Krylov's fable or Raikin's monologue.

Answer 2

Yes, at least on anything.

The budget is there, but there are no developers yet.

Start from the budget, if it’s small - modify some cms to your needs, most likely they all already have plugins for real estate, if it’s normal, then start from which framework the developers available to you can use.

Preferably an open, popular solution, for which there will be a large developer market in a few years

no one knows how to predict for several years

Answer 3

Nothing from the CMS, at all. For cool projects, large ones, do not use cms, especially free ones.
Bitrix, I could advise you, but even then, I would dissuade. Because with him at the beginning from scratch, everything is very joyful and cool when he does a million things for you. And when you want customization or flexibility, and when the project grows, Bitrix does not show itself very stable in terms of development. He just asks you to insert crutches and sticks there yourself.
I am sure that any symfony / laravel / django framework and a bunch of other time-tested frameworks will handle this.
Frameworks are flexibility, especially if there is "cabbage" ......

Answer 4

In principle, you can write on anything. Depending on the detailed TOR and the expected number of users, there are some advantages in one direction or another, but with such a statement of the problem, there are only 2 options:
Write yourself and use what you know.
Order from the developers and do not try to tell them what to write on, because. they know better than people on the internet which stack they should use.

Answer 5

There is a budget - take Spring (Java)
No budget - Laravel (PHP)
Both options have a more than decent developer community, finding specialists will not be a problem.
