The saying is that something is worth exactly what someone else is willing to pay for it. We know that from looking at real estate listings, where the list price is usually far more than what a home will eventually sell for. Nevertheless, we keep looking at those listings and dreaming. How good are you at guessing the asking price of a house? Find out in the game Curb Value, You'll be shown a picture, and the challenge is to guess the listing price within 5%. You get five guesses, and they will tell you if you should go higher or lower after each guess. I won the first three rounds, and one was exact in three guesses. I think they might round off the numbers a bit. I don't know how many houses are on the game each day, because I decided to quit while I was ahead.
Anyway, you will think that the one picture doesn't have enough information. That's true, but click on the image to find it on Google Maps, with a Street View (that might be an interior) and the exact location. That should help- if you know where the houses cost too much. -via Nag on the Lake

Silly me didn't realize you could click on the image in the game to go to actual Google Street View.

The address should be in the upper left corner on Google Maps or Street View.

It's a great idea but the execution leaves a little to be desired. Tell me what city or at least what state, and sometimes the street view is useless because you can't see the house.
