I would like to find resources on and off the web that will help me
see real estate price trends in a given area. I am not a realtor so I
probably would not have access to the multible listing service.

What I am envisioning is a map with colors showing the different
ranges of prices for different types of real estate. Example: vacant
land subdivided into waterfront, lakefront, no waterfront.

I own a software copy of Map Point and could utilize that with the
appropbiate  data.

Another place to start with might be Google Earth.

Without using the MLS, property tax records are a good way to chart
sales data. Typically, the property tax info will list transactions
and sales data. Some municipalities have this information online
allowing you to search by date. Additionally, there are websites such
as njtaxmaps.com or etaxmaps.com that make this search a lot easier.
What city/county/state are you looking for?

Hi, Thanks for the reply. My interest is central florida.  Cliff
