As you might already be aware, we are obsessed with real estate information at Trulia. And today we launched a new way for you to visualize real estate from your desktop.
Trulia Snapshot is therapy for home buyers, real estate enthusiasts, college-age dreamers, ready-to-upgrade home owners, your mom, my mom and everyone from the interested to real-estate-obsessed. It satisfies our universal need to gander real estate photos, prices and locations online.
Of course we are here to help you dream big, but whether it’s pure gawkery that you are after, or if you are longing for a new way to visualize what’s on the market in your area, Trulia Snapshot is here to fulfill your needs (well…at least these needs).
So how does it work?
It’s pretty simple: search for any city in the U.S., can click around the map, scroll the slider through the most expensive/least expensive homes in your neighborhood, or just hit the big play button on the left to sit back and let your dream home find you.

This is one of many data visualizations that we’ve launched. For Trulia Snapshot we worked with the very cool Stamen Design, the same firm that helped us bring Trulia Hindsight and Trulia SearchPaths to life. And of course we recently launched the ability to walk the streets from your couch with our Google Street View integration!
So what are you waiting for? Start clicking to get started…
Chicago, IL; Austin, TX; Los Angeles, CA; and Miami, FL.

This will become useful as the prices keep sinking. The boat hasn’t hit the bottom!

This is extremely cool. What is the rollout schedule for other major markets?
