A simple program that scans Zillow and Redfin and returns results that will have an estimated net monthly income of a value, which you can set.

Instructions for use:

  1. Make sure that househunt.py, searchresults.py, and mortgage.py are all in the working directory.

  2. Create a Gmail Account and a Zillow API Key

  3. Set your envars by running the following commands in Terminal (you'll need to do this each time you run the script):

export GMAIL_EMAIL='gmail@gmail.com'

export GMAIL_PASSWORD='xxxxxxxx'

export ZILLOW_API_KEY='yyyyyyyyy'

  1. Fill out the email list, where you want the results, in line 46.

  2. Set your other customizations in the main function, lines 71 onward.

  3. Run the script.

#NOTES:

How to find the region ID for Redfin:

  1. Do a search for the city (ie. Chicago)
  2. You'll see a URL like this: https://www.redfin.com/city/29470/IL/Chicago
  3. Region code in this example is 29470

To adjust the number of homes scanned, go to 'househunt.py', line 675 ('num_homes') and set the number there.
