Many people were upset when Lancaster, NY took down their assessment challenge web site. The site referred to as OARS (online assessment review system) was helpful in finding comparables for your house and providing you with other homes in your area.

In addition to that, it was useful for local real estate investors when searching for a property in Lancaster. The profiles include quite a bit of detailed information regarding a property and also includes a picture of the property.

The system is back online. It might not be the easiest thing to find, so here is the link:

Good luck.

Are you looking to sell items on Ebay? If you are, do a little research first. There is a terrific site called Mpire.com that offers a lot of tools that you can and should use even if you are just looking to sell one item.

You should use the researcher prior to selling an item. The data that you can get for free will tell you the best description to use for your ebay item, the best time to start and end the listing, the price to start at and any additional features that you should pay for (gallery, bold, etc).

Mpire is able to do this by analyzing past Ebay sales data. Ebay opens their data to developers and Mpire is an example of the tools that come from this open access.

Visit Mpire.com before you list with Ebay.
