Property investment firm integrates Google Earth to show properties for sale

Property firm turns to Google Earth

Property investment firm David Stanley Redfern is offering clients online viewing of global properties in real time.

The firm’s web site will use Google Earth's interactive programme to allow visitors access to the company’s portfolio of property in over 40 locations worldwide.

‘Google Earth combines the power of Google Search with satellite imagery, maps, terrain and 3D buildings,’ said the firm’s director David Redfern.

‘It will allow our clients to see the property or plot of land they are considering for purchase,’ he said.

In addition to property visuals, Google Earth enables users to search for local businesses, print driving directions and add data points such as restaurant reviews and personal photos.
