AgentRank API Idea #2: Fantasy Real Estate
Similar to Drew’s call for a Virtual Housing Stock Market game, but based on “drafting” real estate agents rather than “trading” houses. How it might work:
- Start a new “season” on the first day of each quarter.
- Using AgentRank API’s ‘profiles’ resource, players browse agent profiles and “draft” a sales team consisting of no more than 10 real estate agents.
- Scoring is based on home sales and can be determined using AgentRank API’s ’sales’ resource. A player is credited points when an agent on the player’s team closes a sale during the quarter.
- Players can “hire” and “fire” agents throughout the season.
- Maintain leader boards in each metro area for player teams.
- End the season on the last day of each quarter and tally the “gross” sales for player teams to determine a winner.
Maybe a good candidate for the Facebook Developer Platform? Again, if you have the programming skills and want to take a shot at it, lemme know and I’ll personally help you get it going.

Hi:
Interesting idea. Realius is developing a series of Fantasy Real Estate(TM) games. Our first game, Price Me Now, gives players a real estate IQ based on their ability to predict the sales price of homes on the market.
If you have good reputation data on agents, perhaps there is an opportunity to collaborate.
Let me know.
