Estately True Areas: Search Beyond the Box July 25, 2007
We just released Estately True Areas which lets people search “beyond the box” and inside the neighborhood, city, or zip code they’re interested in. The area outline and listings in the area are the only results displayed on the map. You can also use it to search for homes within a mile or two from [...]
Great Scott! Polygon Based Property Searching! June 7, 2007
About 13 months ago, John L. Scott & Real Tech introduced what they brand High Definition maps for their map based MLS search. Well today, they’ve gone from 720p to 1080p with the introduction of the “Neighborhood Wizard“.
With the Neighborhood Wizard, you draw a polygon like you would in a drawing program. Then when you’ve [...]
More updates from Google real estate May 29, 2007
Maplets now let you search for real estate via the traditional Google maps interface. More from Google on the subject. (Get your listings into Google Base to be included). Joel has wondered aloud about Google Real Estate in the past.
If you’re a developer, you can build your own maplet on Google maps, but you’re giving [...]
A look behind the Shack, Part 1: Speed Kills March 19, 2007
Really, in the world of the web, slow speed kills. And most people only think about the length of time it takes a website to load when it is taking eons to show up. For static sites, meeting the magic four second page load time isn’t too hard, but for sites with lots of “dynamic [...]
Changing the World One Banana at a Time January 17, 2007
It appears that Rain City Guide has gone to bananas…
The following photo baffled me when I first saw it.
How to explain someone linking to Rain City Guide with this photo?
With my curiosity peeked, I noticed that Ed Kohler posted the photo from his Flickr account… Hmm… Who’s Ed Kohler?
Ed [...]

What’s hot and what’s not in Seattle? June 7, 2006
Where to invest next in Seattle/Eastside neighborhoods? I’ve been thinking about the list Seattle Metropolitan Magazine came up in April (see below). With gas prices up, rapid transit going in, I think the next hot spots will be along those rapid transit routes like what happened in San Francisco and Portland.
Here are 2 lists, one [...]
Sold Data May 16, 2006
Interestingly, the NWMLS is now allowing agents to list sold data on real estate websites.
Along these lines, Shelley Rossi, the Director of Public Relations for John L. Scott, emailed to let me know that John L. Scott added a comparable market analysis tool to their home search Robbie discussed last week…
There are two [...]
The race for 2nd place has begun May 9, 2006
OK, I’m biased and I still believe that “Zearch” is currently King of the Hill of King County home searches. However, I’m willing to give credit where credit is due and say the distance between us and the rest of the pack got smaller today.
Today, John L Scott and their solution provider, Bellevue based Real [...]
