BidSelect Changes Map Provider

Buyers who map a listing found on BidSelect.com will now be directed to Google Maps.  We are very excited about this enhancement to our site.  Google is known for its innovative mapping features and we are proud to extend these to BidSelect site visitors.

Available features through BidSelect include:

  • Satellite & Terrain – View alternate versions of a map.
  • Street View – View a thumbnail image of the property, where available.
  • Driving Directions – Get directions to a listing from any location.
  • Search Nearby – Plot points of interest, e.g. schools, daycare, shopping, gas and banking.
  • Send Map – Email the map to yourself, a buyer or a friend.

Don’t bother with a printed map that is easily lost or thrown away.  Buyers and agents need information at their fingertips.  It’s easy to send a map to your mobile device through the Send Map feature. 

You can even send a map to a GPS device.  Garmin is just one of the options, and you can watch a quick how-to video (Using Google Maps with your Garmin GPS Device) produced by the Garmin blog team.

We hope you like the new experience.  Share your comments here on my blog post, or visit BidSelect.com and click on the Dialog option in the lower righthand corner.  Here’s to better mapping!!
