Realestate.com, the online real estate destination owned by the online mortgage giant LendingTree, rolled out a new sitewide redesign last week.
The new design is clean, fast and eminently usable. And while not as tricked out as some of its competitors, the site is a very capable competitor. Results are returned in a very easy to [...]
Estately has been playing the slow and steady game, but it’s one that I’m increasingly convinced is working out for them.
Today, they announced the addition of their tenth metropolitan market as they bring Atlanta under their fold. Adding 127,000 listings from two Georgia MLS databases, it now brings the total number of properties for sale [...]
Gahlord Dewald writes today over on Inman.com about Tweetlister - a new service that helps you market your listings on Twitter.

Traffic to all the major portals seems to be ticking up after a pretty miserable 4th Quarter all around. Trulia [...]
Ever since Zillow evolved into.. well, whatever it is now (some sort of real estate search, AVM, mortgage rate and discussion forum Frankenstein Hydra, as far as I can tell), the controversy over Zestimates seems to have quieted down.

Google recently flipped the switch on a new service called Latitude; which takes Twitter-like status updates and mashes it up realtime location data. The premise is Latitude will let you share your location and see where your “friends” are anywhere on a map.
