It is still best to talk to a real estate professional (preferably one who is fulltime) to get the most complete information. Many of them aren't even in the real estate business so their information is "second hand" at best. The Benchmark agents are active in the market so their info is good. There is a time that is coming when the available information to be agregated will diminish to apoint that makes the agregators less than useful. Google NWMLS to pull feed to Realtor .com. Agents and brokers are losing interest in having "every" site compete with them for the traffic their listings are generating. It is only a matter of time before listing agents get smart and follow the NWMLS' lead. I find these sites limited in their usefulness because none of them has definitive information.
