I sort of like it. Basically a slightly nicer version of craigslist.<p>To be honest though... With my experience in this particular niche...I don&#x27;t &quot;get it&quot;.<p>The pages are printer friendly (a lot of realtors gripe about that). Pages load fast. Gallery&#x2F;map view. It&#x27;s challenging to integrate with that many MLS&#x27; as well...Some good stuff in there. It&#x27;s obviously you put a lot of work into it.<p>Great job on doing something against the grain.<p>If the purpose is to make money...probably not the greatest site. Other than a very tiny sliver of the population who appreciates this sort of approach (ie. hackernews readers), most people are going to bounce right off the site.<p>The single biggest missing piece is any sort of search functionality. It&#x27;s REALLY annoying to use the site for anything other than a bit of browsing.<p>That said - great work...I hope you got paid!<p><i></i> EDIT <i></i>* The more time I spend trying to hate this website, the more I end up liking it. Mission accomplished :)

You need overflow:hidden for the ellipsis to work, but I&#x27;d rather see the nowrap gone.<p>Otherwise I love it.

I like it and did something similar a few years ago with a villa rental site.<p>I used to add the number of available properties after the place name in the list view e.g. Tenerife (12).

Hi Everyone, we just launched Dane Arthur, a minimalist (brutalist?) real estate website that covers all areas of Minnesota &amp; Wisconsin (19 MLS boards). The idea was to run in the opposite direction of everyone else. Mobile version will be up next week (currently looks terrible on mobile, fine on desktop&#x2F;tablet). Feedback is welcome - thanks!

With my over 30+ almost 40 eyes and glasses and a 1920x1200 24&quot; monitor fonts are simply too small.<p>Otherwise it looks good and I like the simplicity.

good luck! did you tried to make the font even more smaller so you don&#x27;t have to scroll that much ?
