Google getting it's Real-Estate search on ...

looks like Google is building more real-estate into it's internet search. This time in Australia and New Zealand. I'd seen part of this search in the states a while back 


I've done real-estate search in http://maps.google.com by putting in 'real-estate' in the search box and then click the 'Real-estate on Google Maps' link. From there you can search by price, size, # of baths and more.  Pretty cool....
