Inspiration

Finding a trustworthy property in Bangladesh is still a frustrating experience. Buyers and renters often have to browse multiple websites, verify information manually, negotiate through phone calls, and deal with outdated or misleading listings. Property owners also struggle to reach the right audience while managing inquiries and listings efficiently.

We built Ghor Bari AI to modernize this process by combining artificial intelligence with a secure, user-friendly real estate platform. Our goal is to make property discovery smarter, faster, and more transparent for everyone.


What it does

Ghor Bari AI is an AI-powered real estate platform that simplifies buying, renting, and managing properties.

Key features include:

  • 🤖 AI-powered property recommendations
  • 🏡 AI-generated property descriptions
  • 📈 Intelligent property price estimation
  • 💬 Real-time chat between buyers and property owners
  • 📍 Geo-location based property search
  • ✅ NID-based user verification for trusted transactions
  • ❤️ Wishlist and property comparison
  • 📊 Analytics dashboard for property owners and administrators
  • 💳 Secure online listing payments using SSLCOMMERZ
  • 📧 Automated email notification system
  • 🔐 Secure authentication and role-based access control

Instead of simply listing properties, Ghor Bari AI helps users make informed decisions using AI-driven insights and intelligent search.


How we built it

The project was built using a modern full-stack architecture.

Frontend

  • React
  • Vite
  • Tailwind CSS
  • React Router
  • Axios
  • Firebase Authentication
  • Socket.io Client
  • React Leaflet

Backend

  • Node.js
  • Express.js
  • MongoDB
  • Mongoose
  • Firebase Admin SDK
  • Socket.io
  • JWT Authentication
  • BcryptJS
  • Node Cron
  • Nodemailer

AI & Services

  • Groq API
  • Firebase Authentication
  • ImgBB
  • SSLCOMMERZ Payment Gateway

The backend follows an MVC architecture with modular services, secure REST APIs, background job processing, and real-time communication using Socket.io.


Challenges we ran into

Building an end-to-end real estate platform involved several technical challenges.

Some of the biggest challenges included:

  • Designing scalable database relationships for users, properties, chats, reviews, and payments.
  • Building a real-time messaging system with Socket.io.
  • Integrating AI responses while keeping recommendations relevant.
  • Implementing secure authentication and role-based authorization.
  • Managing asynchronous email jobs without affecting application performance.
  • Integrating SSLCOMMERZ payment workflows while handling successful, failed, and cancelled transactions.
  • Optimizing search and filtering across thousands of potential listings.

Each challenge helped improve both the architecture and overall user experience.


Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are especially proud that Ghor Bari AI is much more than a property listing website.
