RealEstate.com provides users instant access to comprehensive home value estimation data for nearly 100 million homes including those for sale and existing residences.

The RealEstate.com home valuation tool, found at www.realestate.com/homepricecheck or www.homepricecheck.com, provides users a unique one-stop-information-shop for all of their real estate curiosities. After simply entering an address and zip code, users will have their hands on tons of real estate data, including property information, values and locations for their own homes, their neighbors' homes or even their bosses' home. RealEstate.com's home valuation tool recently underwent a major upgrade and now offers visitors the following features:

• What's My House Worth? � The home valuation tool gives each property searched a unique Value Estimate Range that shows the high and low end of a home's value. This data is derived from proprietary technology that looks at geographical factors, comparable homes in the area and current market conditions and provides price estimates unlike any other Web site valuation device.
• Give Me the Scoop � Each home searched through the RealEstate.com valuation tool displays many property details including number of bedrooms and bathrooms, square feet and the year the home was built.
• Are you a Nosey Neighbor? � If you're interested in knowing what your neighbors' homes are worth, you can now see values for more than 97 million homes across the country when using the RealEstate.com home valuation tool. The home valuation tool taps into local real estate data and shows users comparable homes in the area and includes detailed information such as address, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, square feet, sold date and sold price.
• The Homing Device® � The home valuation tool also features a one-of-a-kind homing device that plots specific addresses on a value grid based on square footage and total price compared to other homes in the area. The homing device uses the Google Maps^TM API, which allows users to toggle around the neighborhood viewing other home values that are in close proximity to homes searched.
• Superior Mapping Technology � The home valuation tool is accompanied by Google Maps^TM and offers users information about where homes are plotted on a neighborhood street map, as well as their proximity to other comparable properties in the area. The mapping technology also allows users to cyber-cruise around the neighborhood and see detailed property information about other homes for sale and other existing home values.
• What Else is on the Market? � Now users can view similar homes for sale in the area when utilizing the RealEstate.com home valuation tool. Each home listing includes detailed property information such as address, number of bedroom and bathrooms, type of home and listing price and with a few quick clicks of their mouse, users can also be connected with a real estate professional in a matter of moments if they are interested. This feature is also linked to Google Maps^TM and shows users where each home is located in the area.
