auto rent estimate with selenium

Using python I automated rent estimate search on GoSection8.com website using street address

The search is made for 4 different bedroom sizes for each street address.

I used selenium module to capture rent estimate chart and cropped image into smaller images to be fed to Optical Character Recognition (OCR) website

Each rent estimate search gives a chart that contains rent estimate for 4 conditions (County, City, Zip and Radius)

I cropped each chart into 4 different images where each image contains rent estimate data for one of the above conditions.

I fed the cropped images to the OCR website and retrieved the rent estimate data and fed the data to an excel file.

Captured chart images are found in charts folder

street address data and the rent estimate data are found in addresses.xlsx file.
