REAL ESTATE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

ABSTRACT

The Real Estate Management System is a web-based application designed to assist property
buyers and sellers in managing their property transactions. The system enables users to create
a profile, search for properties, and communicate with buyers or sellers. The system is designed
with three different user roles: buyers, sellers, and administrators. Buyers can register to the
system and create a profile, search for properties based on their preferences, save their favorite
listings, and communicate with sellers. Sellers can register to the system and create a profile,
list their properties, receive inquiries from buyers, and manage their listings. Administrators
can manage users, approve property listings, and resolve user complaints. The system is built
using the Flask framework, a lightweight Python web application framework that provides
essential tools for building web applications. Flask enables easy integration with other web
technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, making it ideal for building web
applications with a simple yet powerful interface.The system uses MySQL, an open-source
relational database management system, to store user information, property listings, and other
data. The use of a database allows for efficient storage and retrieval of information, enabling
users to quickly search for and access the information they need.The system includes various
features such as property search, property listing, user registration, login, complaint
management, and scheduling meetings. The use of black-box testing ensures that the system is
reliable and secure, providing users with a safe and convenient platform to manage their
property transactions.

In conclusion, the Real Estate Management System provides an efficient and user-friendly
platform for property buyers and sellers to manage their transactions. The system's features and
tools enable users to easily search for properties, communicate with buyers or sellers, and
manage their property listings. The use of Flask and MySQL ensures that the system is robust
and reliable, providing a seamless user experience.

CHAPTER III
SYSTEM DESIGN

INTRODUCTION:
Design is the first step in the development phase for any techniques and principles for the
purpose of defining a device, a process or system in sufficient detail to permit its physical
realization. Software design is a process to transform user requirements into some suitable
form, which helps the programmer in software coding and implementation. Software design is
a process to transform user requirements into some suitable form, which helps the programmer
in software coding and implementation Once the software requirements have been analysed
and specified the software design involves four technical activities-designs, coding,
implementation and testing that are required to build and verify the software. Design is the
place where quality is fostered in a development. Software design is a process through which
requirements are translated into a representation of software. Software design provides a design
plan that describes the elements of a system, how they fit, and work together to full-fill the
requirement of the system. Design usually accompanies an architecture diagram with pointers
to detailed feature specifications of smaller pieces of the design. Practically, the description is
required to coordinate a large team under a single vision.

3.1 USE CASE DIAGRAM:

A use case diagram is a dynamic or behaviour diagram in UML. Use case diagrams model the
functionality of a system using actors and use cases. Use cases are a set of actions, services,
and functions that the system needs to perform. In this context, a "system" is something being
developed or operated, such as a web site.
3.2 ER DIAGRAM:
ER Diagram stands for Entity Relationship Diagram, also known as ERD is a diagram that
displays the relationship of entity sets stored in a database. In other words, ER diagrams help
to explain the logical structure of databases. ER diagrams are created based on three basic
concepts: entities, attributes and relationships.
3.4 SEQUENCE DIAGRAM:
Sequence Diagrams are interaction diagrams that detail how operations are carried out. They
capture the interaction between objects in the context of a collaboration. Sequence Diagrams
are time focus and they show the order of the interaction visually by using the vertical axis of
the diagram to represent time what messages are sent and when. sequence Diagrams captures:
• the interaction that takes place in a collaboration that either realizes a use case or an
operation (instance diagrams or generic diagrams)
• high-level interactions between user of the system and the system, between the system
and other systems, or between subsystems (sometimes known as system sequence
diagrams)
3.7 ACTIVITY DIAGRAM:
Activity diagram is another important behavioral diagram in UML diagram to describe
dynamic aspects of the system. Activity diagram is essentially an advanced version of flow
chart that modeling the flow from one activity to another activity.

During the registration process, users are required to submit personal and contact
information along with their login credentials. For buyers, the registration form may include
fields for their name, email, phone number, and residential address. Additionally, buyers may
provide their property preferences, such as property type, location, and budget. Upon
successful registration, buyers can view property listings, schedule visits, and communicate
with sellers.
For sellers, the registration form may require them to provide their name, email, phone
number, and business information such as their company name, address, and website. In
addition, sellers can input information regarding their properties, including type, location, size,
and price. After completing the registration process, sellers can list their properties, receive
inquiries from buyers, and manage their listings.

3.10.2 LOGIN MODULE:

The login process is a crucial component that ensures security and access control for
users who must have a registered account to access the system.

To log in, users are required to enter their registered email and password. Upon clicking
the login button, the system verifies the login credentials, and if they are valid, the user will be
redirected to their respective dashboard.

Buyers may access features such as saved property listings, property recommendations
based on their preferences, and a messaging system to communicate with sellers from their
dashboard. On the other hand, the seller's dashboard may include features such as listing
management, property analytics, and communication with buyers.

In case users forget their password, they can use the "forgot password" feature. This
requires them to enter their registered email address, and the system sends a password reset
link to their email. By clicking on the link, the user can set a new password and log in to the
system.

3.10.3 BUYER MODULE:

The buyer module in this project is a crucial component that allows registered buyers to browse
property listings, view property details, schedule visits, and communicate with sellers.Upon
logging in to the system, buyers can access their personalized dashboard, which may include
features such as saved property listings, property recommendations based on their preferences,
and a messaging system to communicate with sellers.

To search for properties, buyers can use the search feature that allows them to filter properties
based on their location, price range, property type, and other criteria. Once they find a property
of interest, they can view the property details, such as the property images, location, price, and
features. Buyers can also schedule property visits through the system, which allows them to
select a convenient date and time for the visit. The system will then send a notification to the
seller, who can confirm or reschedule the visit.

To communicate with sellers, buyers can use the messaging system, which allows them to send
messages and receive responses from sellers. This feature provides a convenient way for buyers
to ask questions, negotiate prices, and receive updates on property availability.Overall, the
buyer module is designed to provide a seamless and personalized experience for buyers,
enabling them to find and purchase properties in a hassle-free manner.

3.10.4 SELLER MODULE:

specifically designed for the registered sellers. It provides a platform for the sellers to manage
their property listings, respond to inquiries from buyers, and track their sales performance.
Upon logging in, the seller can access their dashboard, which consists of various tools and
features to help them manage their listings effectively. They can add new properties, edit
existing listings, and delete properties that are no longer available for sale. The dashboard also
allows them to view and respond to inquiries from interested buyers.
In addition to the listing management tools, the seller module also provides analytics
and reporting features. These features enable the seller to track the performance of their listings,
such as the number of views and inquiries received, and the overall sales performance.
Overall, the seller module is a vital component of the system, which empowers the sellers to
manage their listings effectively and make informed decisions to improve their sales
performance.

3.10.5 ADMIN MODULE:


In this project, the admin module plays a crucial role in managing and monitoring the
system. The admin has the authority to view and manage all user accounts, property listings,
and complaints. They can also add or remove features from the system and modify system
settings. The admin dashboard provides a comprehensive view of the system, including
statistics on user activity, property listings, and complaints.
The admin can access reports and analytics to gain insights into the performance of the
system and make data-driven decisions. In addition, the admin can manage user accounts by
approving or rejecting registration requests, resetting user passwords, and modifying user
information. They can also manage property listings by verifying the authenticity of property
information and approving or rejecting property listings. The admin module ensures the smooth
operation of the system by providing oversight and management of user accounts, property
listings, and complaints.

3.10.6 SCHEDULING MEETING:


In this project, scheduling meetings is a crucial aspect of the communication between
buyers and sellers. The system allows buyers to schedule property visits with sellers based on
their availability. Buyers can view the available time slots for a particular property and select
a time that suits them. Once the buyer selects a time slot, the system sends a notification to the
seller, informing them about the scheduled visit.
The seller can either confirm or reject the meeting request based on their availability. If
the seller confirms the meeting, the buyer receives a notification confirming the meeting and
its details. The system also allows sellers to manage their schedules and availability for
property visits. They can set their preferred time slots and receive meeting requests from
buyers. Sellers can view their upcoming meetings and manage them accordingly. Scheduling
meetings is a crucial feature of the system that facilitates communication and enables property
visits between buyers and sellers.

3.10.6 COMPLAINT MODULE:


The complaint module is an important component of this project that allows buyers and
sellers to raise and resolve issues related to the system. The module provides a user-friendly
interface for registering complaints, tracking their status, and communicating with the
concerned parties.
Buyers can use the complaint module to report issues such as incorrect property listings,
unresponsive sellers, or fraudulent activities. The system will generate a unique complaint ID
for each complaint, which the buyer can use to track its status. The seller will receive the
complaint and respond to it within a specified time. Once the seller has resolved the issue, they
can mark the complaint as resolved, and the buyer will receive a notification.
Sellers can also use the complaint module to report issues such as fake buyers,
misleading information, or technical issues. The system will follow a similar process of
generating a complaint ID, tracking the status, and notifying the concerned parties once the
issue is resolved. The complaint module is a vital aspect of the system that ensures
transparency, accountability, and customer satisfaction.
CHAPTER IV

IMPLEMENTATION AND TESTING

4.1 IMPLEMENTATION

Implementation is the process of converting a new or revised system design into an operational
one. This crucial phase involves careful planning, investigation of current system and its
constraints on implementation, design of methods to achieve changeover methods.

The proper implementation involves conversion of existing clerical files to computer media
and hence these file as they are get converted. Then the actual changeover from the existing
system to the new system takes place.

The system has been tested with sample data, changes are made to the user requirements and
run in parallel with the existing system to find out the discrepancies. The user has also appraised
how to run the system during the training period.

4.1.1 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

Implementation is the stage, which is crucial in the life cycle of the new system designed.
Implementation means converting a new or revised system designed into an operational one.
This is the stage of the project where the theoretical design is turned into a working system.

In computer programming, coding style is manifest in the patterns used by a programmer to


express a desired action or outcome. A good coding style can overcome many of the
deficiencies of a primitive programming language. The goal of good coding style is to provide
easily understood, straightforward, elegant code.

4.2 TESTING

Software testing is the software process used to identify the correctness, completeness, security
and quality of developed computer software. Testing is a process of technical investigation,
performed on behalf of stakeholders, that is intended to reveal quality-related information about
the project with respect to the context in which it is intended to operate. This includes the
process of executing a program or application with the intend of finding errors. The software
testing should be distinguished from the separate discipline of Software Quality Assurance
(SOA). which encompasses all business process areas, not just testing.
4.2.1 UNIT TESTING

Unit testing was used to test individual units in the system and ensure that they operate
correctly. Alternate logic analysis and screen validations were tested in this phase to ensure
optimum efficiency in the system. The procedures and functions used and their association with
data were tested.

4.2.2 MODULE TESTING

Module testing was used to ensure that the dependable components in a module work in
coordination with one another. Functional testing, performance testing and stress tests were
conduct on modules independently to ensure robustness in the system developed.

The various forms, their validations, relationships between forms, tables and the data flow
between components in a module were analyzed and tested. The procedures and functions
common to a module were also tested during module testing.

4.2.3 SUB-SYSTEM TESTING

Sub-system testing also known as integration testing was used to ensure that the modules are
available for integration with one another to form the final integrated system. Interface testing
was conducted to ensure that the modules could work in harmony with one another. The
relationship between the modules and the data they share were tested. The flow of information
or data from one module to another was tested. Procedures and functions common to modules
were analyzed and tested.

4.2.4 SYSTEM TESTING

of popular Python libraries for real estate management system development include NumPy,
Pandas, SQLAlchemy, Django, Flask, and scikit-learn.

Package Managers: Package managers are tools that simplify the installation, update, and
management of Python libraries and modules. Popular package managers for Python include
pip (the default package manager), conda, and pipenv. These tools allow developers to easily
manage dependencies and ensure that the correct versions of libraries are used in their projects.

Version Control Systems: Version control systems are essential for managing code changes,
collaborating with other developers, and ensuring code integrity. Git, a widely used distributed
version control system, is often used in conjunction with Python development. Platforms such
as GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket provide hosting and collaboration services for Git
repositories, allowing developers to manage code changes and work on projects collectively.

Testing Frameworks: Testing is a critical aspect of software development, and Python offers
several testing frameworks, such as unittest, pytest, and nose, for writing and executing test
cases. These frameworks allow developers to ensure the quality and reliability of their code,
identify and fix bugs, and maintain code stability.

Documentation Tools: Python developers often use documentation tools to create and maintain
documentation for their projects. Popular documentation tools for Python include Sphinx,
MkDocs, and ReadTheDocs. These tools allow developers to generate documentation from
their code, making it easier for others to understand and use their projects.

Python work environment typically includes text editors/IDEs, Python interpreters, virtual
environments, libraries/modules, package managers, version control systems, testing
frameworks, and documentation tools. These components provide developers with a robust and
efficient environment for creating real estate management systems and other Python
applications.

5.2 FLASK:

Flask is a Python web framework that is commonly used for building web applications, and it
is a key tool used in the development of this project. Flask is a lightweight framework, easy to
learn and use, and it provides many useful features for web development.

One of the key benefits of using Flask is its simplicity. The framework is designed to be easy
to use, and it allows developers to quickly create web applications with minimal boilerplate
code. Flask is also highly customizable, which makes it an ideal choice for developing a wide
range of applications.

Flask is built on top of the Werkzeug WSGI toolkit and the Jinja2 template engine. Werkzeug
provides a set of utilities for building WSGI applications, and it includes a built-in web server
that can be used for development purposes. Jinja2 is a templating engine that provides a
powerful and flexible way to generate HTML and other types of content.

One of the key features of Flask is its routing system. Routing allows developers to map URL
patterns to specific view functions, which are responsible for handling requests and returning
responses. Flask provides a simple and intuitive syntax for defining routes, and it supports a
wide range of HTTP methods, including GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and more.

Flask also provides a built-in development server that can be used for testing and debugging
applications. The server supports live reloading, which means that changes to the code are
automatically reloaded in the browser without the need to restart the server.
Flask also includes built-in support for form handling, file uploads, and user authentication.
The framework provides a range of libraries and tools for working with databases, including
support for SQL databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. Flask also supports NoSQL
databases like MongoDB and Redis.

Flask supports a wide range of extensions and plugins, which can be used to add additional
functionality to web applications. These extensions include support for tasks such as sending
emails, generating PDF documents, and working with APIs.

In addition to its features for building web applications, Flask also provides a range of tools for
testing and debugging. The framework includes a built-in test client, which can be used to test
routes and view functions. Flask also supports unit testing and integration testing, and it
provides a range of debugging tools for troubleshooting issues in web applications.

In conclusion, Flask is a versatile and powerful web framework that is well-suited for building
a wide range of web applications. Its simplicity, flexibility, and extensibility make it an ideal
choice for developers who want to create web applications quickly and easily, without
sacrificing functionality or performance. Flask provides a wide range of tools and features that
can be used to build secure, scalable, and maintainable web applications.

5.3 MY SQL:

MySQL is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS). Its name is a


combination of "My", the name of co-founder Michael Widenius's daughter My, and "SQL",
the acronym for Structured Query Language. A relational database organizes data into one or
more data tables in which data may be related to each other; these relations help structure the
data. SQL is a language programmers use to create, modify and extract data from the relational
database, as well as control user access to the database. In addition to relational databases and
SQL, an RDBMS like MySQL works with an operating system to implement a relational
database in a computer's storage system, manages users, allows for network access and
facilitates testing database integrity and creation of backups.

MySQL is free and open-source software under the terms of the GNU General Public License,
and is also available under a variety of proprietary licenses. MySQL was owned and sponsored
by the Swedish company MySQL AB, which was bought by Sun Microsystems (now Oracle
Corporation). In 2010, when Oracle acquired Sun, Widenius forked the open-source MySQL
project to create MariaDB.
MySQL has stand-alone clients that allow users to interact directly with a MySQL database
using SQL, but more often, MySQL is used with other programs to implement applications that
need relational database capability. MySQL is a component of the LAMP web
application software stack (and others), which is an acronym for Linux, Apache,
MySQL, Perl/PHP/Python. MySQL is used by many database-driven web applications,
including Drupal, Joomla, phpBB, and WordPress.

The MySQL server software itself and the client libraries use dual-licensing distribution. They
are offered under GPL version 2, or a proprietary license.

Support can be obtained from the official manual. Free support additionally is available in
different IRC channels and forums. Oracle offers paid support via its MySQL Enterprise
products. They differ in the scope of services and in price. Additionally, a number of third party
organisations exist to provide support and services.

MySQL has received positive reviews, and reviewers noticed it "performs extremely well in
the average case" and that the "developer interfaces are there, and the documentation (not to
mention feedback in the real world via Web sites and the like) is very, very good". It has also
been tested to be a "fast, stable and true multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server".
CHAPTER VI

CONCLUSION

The real estate management system is a comprehensive application that provides an efficient
and user-friendly platform for buyers, sellers, and administrators to manage property
transactions. The system allows buyers to browse property listings, schedule property visits,
and communicate with sellers. Sellers can list their properties, receive inquiries from buyers,
and manage their listings. The administrator has complete control over the system, including
managing users, properties, and complaints. The system also includes a complaint module that
enables buyers and sellers to file complaints and track their status. The project uses the Black
Box Testing technique to ensure the system's functionality and efficiency. Python is the primary
programming language used in the project, and Flask is the web framework used for creating
the web application. MySQL is the database management system used to store and retrieve data
from the database. The project's successful implementation highlights the benefits of using
modern technologies and efficient design methodologies in developing robust and scalable
software systems. The real estate management system is a testament to the power of technology
in addressing complex business problems and streamlining operations.
