The listing tells you about the house. We tell you about the life.

Proximity Maps searches homes for sale and rent by travel time to the places you actually go — your grocery store, your gym, your kid's school, your morning coffee. Every home on the map shows its routes and real drive times, so you compare lives, not just listings.

The idea

You don't live in a listing. You live in the minutes around it.

Price, beds, and square footage tell you what a home is. They say nothing about what living there feels like — the Saturday grocery run, the school drop-off, the drive home from work on a Tuesday night. Those trips repeat for years, and they're decided the day you choose the address. Proximity Maps puts them on the map before you commit, so the everyday life a home comes with is something you can see, measure, and compare.

One click on any home shows its real routes — not straight-line distance.

How it works

Three steps from “searching” to “certain.”

1

Tell us your places

Pick from 16 everyday categories — grocery, schools, fitness, dining, coffee, parks, work, healthcare, and more — or add the exact spots you love. Add a brand like Costco or Trader Joe's and every location matches automatically.

2

See every home's routes

Click any home for sale or for rent and watch color-coded routes draw to the closest place in each category, with real drive times along real roads — not as-the-crow-flies guesses.

3

Compare in minutes

Two homes at the same price stop being a coin flip. One is 4 minutes from your grocery store and 9 from school; the other is 20 from everything. Now the choice is obvious — and defensible.

Built around your life

Sixteen categories. Plus the places only you care about.

Everyone's map is different. A young family weighs schools and parks; a remote worker weighs coffee and the gym; retirees weigh healthcare and worship. Toggle the categories that matter to you and mute the rest — the map re-scores instantly.

My Places goes further: add a favorite store or brand and Proximity Maps matches every location in the metro. Loyal to Costco? Every home is measured against the nearest one — automatically.

Why Proximity Maps

Every portal can filter by price. Only one searches by your life.

A typical home search

Price, beds, and a hunch

  • Filters describe the house, not the neighborhood you'll actually use
  • “Close to shopping” means nothing measurable
  • You open Google Maps in a second tab, one address at a time
  • Relocating buyers guess at areas they've never driven
  • Every listing looks the same as the one next to it

Searching with Proximity Maps

Minutes, measured for every home

  • Travel time to your places is a first-class search filterNot a generic walk score — your grocery store, your gym, your school.
  • Color-coded routes drawn on the map, per home, per category
  • Sale and rental listings side by side, same lensRenters deserve the same intelligence buyers get.
  • Relocating? Learn a metro's geography in one sessionThe map shows you where your life clusters before you ever visit.
  • One tab. The commute research is already done.

Who it's for

Buyers fall in love. Agents close with proof.

Buyers & renters

Shop for the life you'll actually live

Whether you're buying your first home or signing a one-year lease, the daily geometry is the same — and it's the part you can't renovate later.

  • See drive times to everything that matters before the showing, not after the move
  • Compare finalists on the trips you'll take hundreds of times a year
  • Rentals get the full treatment — proximity matters even more on a short lease
  • New to the city? Let your places reveal the right neighborhoods for you

Turn location into a closing argument

“Location, location, location” has always been the pitch. Proximity Maps makes it visible, specific, and personal to the client in front of you.

  • Walk into a showing with the client's own drive times already mapped
  • Give relocating clients instant fluency in a metro they've never seen
  • Differentiate a listing by the minutes around it, not just the finishes inside it
  • Replace “it's a great area” with a map your client can verify themselves
