Multiple Listings

Seattlest has discovered a really neat tool for browsing real estate in the King County area. Redfin integrates the multiple listing service with a graphic interface similar to that used by the new Google satellite map viewer. You can waste spend hours going through properties for sale, records of previous sales at least as far back as the late 1990s, complete with pictures, tax records, and so on. The downside is that Redfin clearly shows how expensive housing is around here!
