Those brothers from Melbourne, Adam and Jason Spencer, founders of Street Advisor, are getting ready to present a whole raft of new features at the Inman Real Estate Connect conference in San Francisco on Wednesday.

Included will be “surrounding streets” - a recently released feature that allows you to see what people think about the streets surrounding the particular street you search for.

I think this feature is gold.

Actually, I wish it had been around a couple of years ago when I moved into a nice little street in Surry Hills which was just around the corner from a street full of brothels. It wasn’t the brothels that were a problem but the cars that kept pulling up then taking off not long after, all throughout the night. Anyway, I digress…you get the point.

Another feature they’ve just announced is “best streets” which shows the best streets in the area you’re searching for.

While the site still hasn’t crossed the chasm these features should help to give both direct users and partners (such as Real Estate Agents) more of a reason to use it.
