Google earth/map is also great if you live far.  

For some people, this could be earth shattering.

Michael and Dan, We have not listed them because our nephew is a realtor there and if we can find a buyer on our own, we will have him draw up the paperwork which will save money.So, there are no listings, but I am happy to give you some info.These properties may be found using Google Earth, I believe.

Big, big blow up on a car ride yesterday thru Marin county in NORCAL...it was a saturday that should have included some recreation but we were once again chasing deals..that's when one of us ( we are two people who've been partners for 29 years) said " LETS GET OFF THE HAMPSTER WHEEL AND ENJOY THE LAST GOOD 25 YEARS WE HAVE LEFT ON THIS EARTH"..one of us is 60 the other 55...both of us were financially devastated from divorces and the market crash so we've made and lost hundreds of thousands of dollars over our REI years...BUT!!  

I don't mind offering my opinion based on the numbers they throw out there, but if they don't know if the comps are right or if there's a landfill next door, I'm not going to the house or Google Earth to find out for them.
