Very cool. Probably not legal. But I’ve been using it anyway.
iZillow.net
Hit it on your iPhone. It’s super slick (coded using Safire). Just in time too… (see Apple Releases SDK Kit for iPhone).

I’ve been wondering for a long time when Google would make a more sophisticated step into the real estate space. We might be seeing the first signs.
Much like Trulia, Zillow, Frontdoor and others, they’ve been quietly suctioning in real estate listings into Google Base over the last year or so (see Trulia Lands the Big [...]
