After months of work we have finally mapped all Chico California real estate for sale in Google Earth!
There are many useful, insightful, and fun things you can do once you have the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) mapped in Google Earth. It does take a bit of time to figure out how to use all of the options in Google Earth but after you have spent some time zooming, tilting, rotating and flying around Chico, we think you will be glad you invested the time to learn this valuable tool.
