Does anybody have a trick for knowing what 200 yards looks like on the map. Like how far out we should look or zoom in. This is escaping me somehow. I know a football field is 120 yards, but that doesn't help much

 

maybe google maps could help?

 

Yea, I tried that. I just think its smaller than I'm assuming or something.

 

maybe a measuring app like in the google chrome store? idk if something like that even exists though. sorry I can't help.

I've accepted so many of these but have returned them all. Even with a decent view of the front of the house, it doesn't help much, unless there's something really distinctive in view. 200 yards is 600 feet.

Maybe there are other ways of finding the info, but I don't know what those would be.

Sometimes the descriptions/reviews have clues, but still very general clues -- like, "A couple blocks from Restaurant X." A couple blocks in 4 directions is a lot of area.

 

@turker have you tried the builtin distance measuring tool inside of google maps?

 

This batch seems to be Berkeley listings.

Can't find any info about how long a block length is in Berkeley, but in San Fran it is 420 X 275 ft.

And, as they say in their directions, the radius might not be accurate. I came across a listing which stated the house was a couple blocks from a certain restaurant. So, I typed in the name of restaurant, and the place was WAY out of the 200 yard radius.

I already knew this, but unless you're experienced and know what to cherry pick, the majority of these listings are nearly impossible to find (assuming you want to do more than one in an hour). You might spend an hour just to find one that's doable.

Anyways, good night. I'll try again tomorrow. :-0
