Andy W.I agree that property specs differ in general.In most cases however, properties will share similar make ups on a given street (and sometimes neighboring streets) more than they will vary.The similarities will give a great indication of whether the neighborhood has mostly ranch-style, two-story, multi-family, residential and commercial mix, or if the property is a loner, because the zoning use has changed.Over time online resources will give an updated reflection of any changes that has taken place.
