When you are looking at property via the web don't you love it when you can see overhead images of the home and neighborhood? Now on my property pages you can see satellite images via Microsoft's Birdseye technology. It is pretty neat. I also had the Google Street Map technology added to my property pages as well. This way you can see in front of each house or condo as well as up and down the street. It gives you a better idea of the neighborhood and area. Take a test spin and let me know what you think.
