From this very simple (and scrape-able) website: http://house.speakingsame.com/

Potential extensions:

Scrape rent prices, then create a tool so one can figure out how much average rent is in the suburb they want (postcode, proximity to parks, schools etc) with the amenities they want (bedroom, bathroom, parking)
Create a tool so one can figure out average price for a property they want
Adjust for inflation over time too

Hi! Thanks for the topic suggestion.

To help us prepare for the hackathon event it would be great to prepare a quick 30-60 sec overview of the topic to introduce it to the group on the day and seek interested collaborators. You can use the below prompts to help with this:

What is the headline idea?

What is the (realistic) outcome being aimed for during the event?

What types of contributions would be welcomed (i.e. specific skills, tasks)?
