It set out to use maps as the canvas that lets it tell the story of every property on its site—not just where it is, but what the neighborhood is like, how safe it is, the quality of the schools, how long it takes to commute to work and more.

"Google Maps let us visualize data in a context that’s important to homebuyers. Instead of a list of crime statistics, we can create a color-coded heat map where our users can look around the city or town they’re exploring and compare neighborhoods, or even streets that are close to each other… Google Maps adds color and life to home buying by giving us a platform to tell a story about a particular neighborhood or property."
