The CEO of TagWorld beat you to it though....he has an entry on his TagWorld page from Apr 13th about Zillow. It uses the aerial photo of (supposedly) Brittney Spears house that has a price of near $6 mil as an example. Only caveat about this kind of info online is the dubious accuracy of the numbers. Most likely the data is from tax rolls which may or may not be up-to-date and which seldom reflect the true market value of homes, and oft times, not even an accurate square footage. As a general indicator of lot size and price range for an area, a service like Zillow can be a great guide though. Zillow is very interesting.
