herself, or just to prevent you from selling it to competitors? Is she
paying you, or are you just helping out here and there for a friend?
I wouldn't give up the right to create this for someone else based for
$2,500.
I did some real estate web work; this reminds me a bit of a "Virtual
Office Web" which, basically is just a real real estate office, except its
all over the web and the realtor is not sitting down w/ the client to
cruise MLS listings, the client is doing it on the web site.
If you take what you have and add some IDX integration, you will have a
saleable product (or service) that could bring you in significantly more
than $2,500.
Of course, if this person is your friend, you have to walk careful
ground, so you don't end up on Texas Justice or anything.
You might try to get a clause that says you won't sell to her competitors
in her defined area, but that she can't use any other vendor for updating
this application.
