Show HN: Tool shows UK properties matching group commute/time preferences I came up with this idea when I was looking to move to London with a friend. I quickly learned how frustrating it is to trial-and-error housing options for days on end, just to be denied after days of searching due to some grotesque counteroffer. To add to this, finding properties that meet the budgets, commuting preferences and work locations of everyone in a group is a Sisyphean task - it often ends in failure, with somebody exceeding their original budget or somebody dropping out. To solve this I built a tool ( https://closemove.com/ ) that: - lets you enter between 1-6 people’s workplaces, budgets, and maximum commute times - filters public rental listings and only shows the ones that satisfy everyone’s constraints - shows results in either a list or map view No sign-up/validation required at present. Currently UK only, but please let me know if you'd want me to expand this to your city/country. This currently works best in London (with walking, cycling, driving and public transport links connected), and works decently in the rest of the UK (walking, cycling, driving only). This started as a side project and it still needs improvement. I’d appreciate any feedback! https://closemove.com August 21, 2025 at 12:29AM
