New Map Based Search for Homes 

 

Welcome to SpatialMatch®, a real-time interactive geo-spatial search platform that delivers a totally new way to search for real estate online. Every aspect of the search process is conducted on the map, creating a fluid and entertaining user experience.

Through the innovative Lifestyle Search System, you can visually see the relational perspective between all things important in your real estate decision making process. SpatialMatch is embedded into the Moving to Portland® Web site and gives consumers a way to research all aspects of areas and neighborhoods including a lifestyle search that helps you create a file of what’s important in your day-to-day life. For example, if you want to live in a specific school district, they can select and search for homes using that as a choice. If you want to live within 10 miles of your work, you can enter that address and any others as custom addresses and include them in the search. Or if you want to stop at Starbucks every morning and want it within five miles of their home, you can choose that as well.

SpatialMatch has over 125 different databases feeding information into the matches and continues to integrate new data monthly. The Portland metro area multi-list system (RMLS) has an IDX agreement with SpatialMatch®, that allows the Moving to Portland site to populate area listings within those geographic ranges based on the consumer’s selected lifestyle choices.

The platform is built on deep levels of data, including for-sale homes, historic ‘sold’ data, 60+ million not-for-sale houses, 130,000+ schools and universities, 12+ million businesses, demographics and statistical data, and much more.

What is Missing

SpatialMatch is currently viewable on platforms that can handle Flash, including Android OS. It is not currently viewable on the Apple iPhone or iPad, but this will change will with the release of SpatialMatch 2.0. Developers expect to release the iPad and iPhone apps  in late 2013 so you can begin using SpatialMatch on your iPad/iPhone soon.  You can now download a browser called "Puffin" at the Apple App Store and SpatialMatch will work on your iPad/iPhone.
