Searching for a house?

There are many websites you can use to locate houses for sale including the official site of the National Association of Realtors, Redfin, and Zillow.

Each has its own reason to visit as each has different features. Realtor.com has featured tours, Redfin has a forum to ask questions online, and Zillow has an automatic appraisal system based on recent home sales. If you aren't in the market for a home, an entertaining part of Zillow is their page highlighting the homes of the stars.

Of course the blockbuster site of the future might be owned by Google - see their beta site Google Base which allows you to search for haunted houses or houses with firepoles for sale worldwide. It's also good to find a house by street name which is almost impossible on the other sites.
