Google Map Buddy
I saw this on Lifehacker last week, a great Google Map tool for real estate.
Google Map buddy allows you to easily print out wall-sized satellite views of a neighborhood for your listing, or make a full-page street map of the neighborhood for a buyer. I can think of a few real estate applications for this tool.
Maybe use it to keep track of your company’s listings?
From the maker’s website:
* Capture Google Maps images offline and store them on your hard drive
* Print out maps of entire cities at zoom levels that would take hours to put together
If you have ever spent hours print screening your Google maps into Paint and stitching them together you NEED this program!
Map Buddy is a free download for Windows only.
Got any other ideas on how to use this for real estate? Comment please…

Be careful what you ask for with this tool. If you take the defaults, select all map options and a high zoom level, it will fill your desktop up with hundreds (yes hundreds) of .png files. I'm not saying that's wrong, I'm just saying, be careful what you ask for.
