Google now offers tools for real estate professionals that lets you reach prospects in your region at all stages of their home search. These tools have been around for a while and Google is just repackaging and positioning them for real estate professionals.

The tools they are referring to are:

Google Base
AdWords
Maps
Earth
Local Business Center
Google Sketchup
Google Apps.

Google's overall message is that they can help generate real estate referrals and leads to help connect home buyers and sellers since Google has more real estate searches than all other search engines combined.

Active Rain is a great website. It is a real estate social networking site. I guess this site has the same features, just not the readership. That's what makes Active Rain so powerful, a wealth of knowledge on any topic. Lot's of people trying to pimp themselves and their real estate companies and websites, etc.

But it is a great place to network and pick up new ideas. You can also ask people for help on any topic. You can create your own profile and blog for free if you wish. You can comment on other peoples stuff as well.  read more »
