A Visual Home Valuation Tool

I am facinated with information visualization practices as with maps and GPS technology. Here is an interesting application of all these. Zillow is providing information on housing prices in US, superimposed on a satalite or a street map. So convenient. Other services I have seen give the same information in a text / tabular format. If real estate is all about location, location, location, reflecting the financial data on a geographical baseline sounds like two birds with one stone to me.
