Description:

realestatescrape 0.1.5

real-estate-scrape
Get the estimated value of a property from Redfin and Zillow
Automated usage

To make charts like this by getting the value of a property once a day, see
mikepqr/real-estate-scrape-eg.
Advanced/manual usage
Export REDFIN_URL and ZILLOW_URL. To optionally use scraperapi, also export
SCRAPERAPI_KEY. Then to scrape and append to data.csv in the current working
directory:
$ pip install real-estate-scrape
$ real-estate-scrape

Why
Redfin and Zillow both give you an estimate of the current market value of your
home. That estimate is given to the nearest dollar (!) and comes with a chart
that claims to be the history of that estimate. That historical chart is a lie.
The estimate for today bounces around a lot, but they retcon the history to
pretend it doesn't. The precision of today's estimate and the smoothness of the
chart make the estimate look ridiculously trustworthy. This scraper captures the
bouncing, which gives you a good idea how much to trust the current value
(probably good to 10-20% at most).
