There are services like ListHub and Point2 that you can contract with for data, but point2 just launched their own consumer facing site. Zillow just bought a few companies to enhance their offerings in this space.

I'm not saying don't give it a try, but you'll have to offer something special to get noticed.

Thanks for the pointers! Nothing good comes easily!

>you'll have to offer something special to get noticed.

This is true for absolutely every startup.
