The Challenge

OFWs and land buyers in the Philippines have no reliable way to verify lots remotely — listings are scattered across Facebook with vague descriptions, no maps, and no boundary data.

Overview

Philippines' First Map-First Land Marketplace. The Philippine land market has a transparency problem. Listings are scattered across Facebook groups with vague descriptions — 'near the highway,' 'beside the barangay hall.' OFWs wire hundreds of thousands of pesos for lots they've never seen. No maps. No boundaries. No verification. So I built LotAtlasPH — a map-first, land-only marketplace built specifically for the Philippines. Sellers draw actual lot boundaries directly on an interactive map. Buyers browse, filter, and inquire without needing an account. Everything is visible, verifiable, and direct. It's a fully functional end-to-end platform — not just a prototype. Sellers get a full dashboard to post and manage listings. Buyers can save favorites and send inquiries. A lot claim system lets rightful owners verify and take ownership of existing listings. An admin panel handles verification, duplicate detection, and user management. Free, mobile-first, and built entirely on free-tier infrastructure.

My Approach

Built a Leaflet-based map-first marketplace where sellers draw real lot boundaries during listing, buyers browse and inquire anonymously, and an admin panel handles verification and duplicate detection.

Key Features

Leaflet-based interactive map with real lot markers and GeoJSON boundary polygon overlays

Sellers draw actual lot boundaries during listing creation — buyers see exactly what they're getting

The Impact

Fully functional end-to-end marketplace live at lot-atlas-ph.vercel.app — solving a transparency problem in a market with over 2 million active land disputes. Next milestones: government cadastral data integration and OFW remote buying tools.
