Two More Free Tools for Your Website
|
| | When Trulia told you about three free and easy tools to improve your website earlier this year (TruliaMap, TruliaVoices and TruliaStats), we got a ton of positive feedback. So our team got right to work on some new tools that will make your website even better: TruliaCalculator and TruliaCarousel. Best of all, you can have both for free with just a couple clicks. |
|  | TruliaCalculator
Use the TruliaCalculator widget to give your users an easy tool to estimate the monthly payments for their home purchase. The widget also breaks down the total amount due and the total interest paid over the life of the loan. This mortgage calculator widget adds great real estate content to your own website or blog.

|  | TruliaCarousel
The TruliaCarousel widget is a great way to add real estate listings to your website in an interactive and easy to use property carousel. Users can flip through listings in a local market and you can configure the widget to fit perfectly in your website or blog. Just select the location (and any other optional parameters) and you’re ready to go!

|  | Reasons why a lender would sell at REO than short sale | Q: What is the behind the scene reason why a lender would sell at REO for 20K less than a short sale offer?
Written by Gina Duncan, Agent in Maui County, HI
