Google Gone Real Estate

Google enters another controlling realm of your life. Real estate. Just when you thought you were safe and didn’t need to rely on Google for 100% of your daily needs. It seems Google is trying to make it impossible for you not to use them. All the while building a pretty useful real estate database. When I found this and used this product, I was blown away.

With this service you can search listings near where you live, almost any US city, and even narrow it down based upon price. Not only can you search what is for sale, you can also search places to rent, and even foreclosures.

Google even provides more information on each listing. Such as the year it was built, square feet, price, and number of bedrooms.
