I used Batch Geocode yesterday to make a wonderful “quick and dirty” map of homes for a relo buyer
All it needs is Address, City & State.
Grab the info in Excel Format from your MLS Search, paste into the Batch Geocode Window, and it creates a great, scalable map with labelled balloons. The legend even includes the rest of the information from the spreadsheet data. WAY COOL.

Excellent tip Ira. I include a Google map with each single-listing website I create. I’ll give Batch Geocode a try on the next site.
Btw, I shot ya an email the other day. It’s nice seeing you and some of the rest of the folks from the Phoenix Unchained posting here. It’s like the event hasn’t ended! 😉

This is a great tip! Of course, Ryan has probably already figured out how to gather all the data off the MLS and map it using this. Another thing for my to do list.

I just tried this recently. I had been looking for a good site that did this for years. I eventually had to figure out how to code one myself. This one sets up the map nicely, better than I’ve seen.
