Get Address of properties on Magicbricks.com using Reverse-Geocoding

This script asks for the target property URL, reverse geocodes it 
and prints the address of the property

Need: Magicbricks map functionality doesn't let users get directions. 
Even the exact property address is not visible on the webpage.
