SquareMove Website

Overview

This was a joint project between me and old friend at Logicode. I was responsible for the bulk of the coding / architecture and web design work behind this project.

We shared a common goal of being able to produce a “For Sale By Owner” website that was accessible for UK users. There was a strong belief that sooner or later in the UK we would follow after the US with the FSBO methodology, especially as estate agents in this country are purely handle the marketing aspect and are not responsible for the legal aspects of the sale. Given that about 70% of people use the websites like RightMove for their research it seemed a logical business idea to pursue.
