Real Estate Investing

So in the interests of ensuring that a prospective home buyer never has to leave their computer, all things real estate are now available online. But up until recently, it was difficult to find a good rating system determining the number and types of businesses within driving distance. Very inconvenient. Now all that has changed, thanks to Fizber.com. Name a property - any property - and Fizber will rate it with its “Drive Score Real Estate Widget.”

My home scored 75 out of 100. So exciting. Of course, the mighty widget overlooked key locations like the Longhorn Steakhouse on the corner, but it did include the local karaoke bar! So hat’s off to this new innovative interactive interfacing. It’s worth a look if you’re eyeing that big move. Of course, you could always just do a drive-by and have a look-see in person (so early 90’s).

The mighty widget could be most helpful when relocating to a distant town. Not only will you discover the “Drive Score” of your possibly soon-to-be new home, but you will also learn a thing or two about the quality of businesses nearby, which speaks directly to the quality of the neighborhood. Fizber displays the businesses in a categorized list form and also on an interactive display map. That way, you can determine just how close that karaoke bar really would be.
