Yet Another Real Estate Search Site

Posted on October 11, 2005 by The Tim

Fun! New! More ways to research how best to throw huge piles of money you don’t really have into the local real estate market!

Finding the home of your dreams can take months of research. But thanks to new online tools — including aerial maps that incorporate residential listings — potential home buyers now have a wealth of information at their fingertips.

Today, Kirkland-based HouseValues Inc. will throw some of its muscle behind online aerial maps with a free service called HomePages that allows consumers in 120 cities to peruse house listings, previously sold homes, nearby parks and other information with a bird’s-eye view. It joins a host of other online real estate mapping services — including HousingMaps.com, Redfin and Trulia — that are hoping to change the way people find local real estate information.

I’m beginning to think that Tom of Seattle Property News may have been onto something when he said “Is there a regional bubble in online real estate sites?”
