As Google base future plan is to grow as single individual verticals like Real Estate Google, Car Google, and Apartment Google when they will release the final Google base. With loads of information.
What exactly Realtor.com provides to the end customer, very generic search facility like bedroom, sq ft, and area etc Google base is already having it. Realtor.com is in the business since last 10 – 15 years but do they really added any value to their service to the end customer. Not exactly. Till recently they don’t have map based search. Still this search is not that good. But Information Technology requirement is changing day by day. Customer is demanding more information from Realtors. Provide this and that.
Now if we see Google base what exactly they can provide. Their map is good, earth locator is good they bought YouTube so video media can be another enhancement; they have discussion forum, no limits on the words, no limits on the photo.
So if Google provides these stuff like
Map and Location using Google earth and Google map that will be great.
Video Media Ad for free is great.
Live chat over voice over IP will be a great asset ( it is kind of open house over the net )
Discussion forum like if you have any comment just leave it over there
Pricing of near by homes using Zillow.com open source api.
And some other static tool likes mortgage, school, taxes and other stuff.
So MLS and its public media Realtor.com will survive in future? It all depends how quickly they change their system and keep their technology basket up to date. If they don’t they will be just another real estate search engine and they will loose primary search engine of real estate

[...] Google takes real estate seriously July 28, 2006 The people who poke and prod Google in the hopes of finding secrets hit a treasure trove of services in Google’s testing area today and it looks like Google isn’t just dinking around with a crummy Google-base – real estate listings mashup anymore. It shouldn’t be much of a surprise, what with Paul Rademacher (founder of housingmaps.com) on board, a Google base full of listings, and a great mapping service, Google is creating real estate search as a distinct service.
