Players Predict the Final Sales Price for MLS-Listed Homes in Boston, San Francisco and Seattle

Free to play at http://predict.ziprealty.com, "Price Me Now" players are shown for-sale homes and asked to enter their prediction of the final sales price based on each property's current list price, comparable neighborhood sales and other details. Players earn a Property IQ score ranging from 0 to 200 once a prediction is submitted. Registered players' IQ scores are updated every 15 minutes as more predictions are made.
