Every once in a while, you find some good resources while conducting random internet searches. Today, I located Trulia.com, an online aggregator of real estate “for sale” feeds. Integrated with Google Maps, the site can pull up property listings from multiple websites by zip, city, whatever. Thus far, they claim to reference over 100,000 sites, but only serve California, as the site is still in Beta.
This is one to watch for sure. They have a great idea and have done a good job implementing it. I’ve got high hopes for Trulia.

2Tight Google map integration is definitely the trend of the next gen real estate search engine.
Take a look at http://www.housingrobots.com In additional to what Trulia is providing, they have a couple of unique features that I can’t find in similar sites.
1) “SCHOOL-FIRST” search where buyer can have an overview of top school districts and start from there.
2) “PRICE-HISTORY” tracking, so you see all the price changes of the houses.
3) “SURROUNDING” info. They provide surrounding schools, restaurants, church and bank info for their listed house. Very handy.
4) Their Google Map integration is very well done. All the nearby cities will be updated when you move around. Unlike Trulia which give an approximation at high zoom level, their housing information is accurate at all zoom level.
5) I also like their Google Earth integration
Take a look to see if you like it.
Rgds, Ricky
