Fort Meade - USNA - Andrews AFB: A Bird's-Eye View of the Golf Course Near You

A Bird's-Eye View of the Golf Course Near You

Whether you're relocating to a new area, going on a vacation trip, or just trying out a new course in your local community - this is something you'll want to check out!

Local entrepreneurs in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, recently launched Golf Flyover to provide a virtual tour of golf courses all over the country.  While their goal is to offer flyovers for every course in America on their website, they launched with about 5,000 of the estimated 18,000 courses.  Eventually, they hope to go worldwide.

Aerial views of golf courses have been available for some time, using Google Earth, yet it wasn't possible to know which hole was which when viewing it.  Now, you'll be able to see each tee and green, the terrain and the numbered holes.

Golf Flyover revenues will come from advertising and special services, such as viewing screens installed on golf carts to display the virtual tour; right now, it's free to consumers.  The company's target audience is golfers who travel to golf destinations, but I believe it will be very helpful for real estate:


HOME SELLERS -  Those who back to a golf course, and others living in golf course communities;  

HOME BUYERS - Those who may be golfers, and others who enjoy open space in their community and near their home.

For a bird's-eye view of a golf course near you, check out Golf Flyover.  If you don't see it listed, check back again soon because more golf courses will be added in the coming weeks and months.

 

Now, here is a link to flyovers for Maryland Golf Courses, including several in Anne Arundel County.

What a beautiful blog...I love the photos. Did you take them? Your posts are always inviting and informative. Thanks for sharing them . ; )
Posted by Pamela STETSON (Abbott & Caserta Realtors) about 4 years ago

Fran, I think my husband is upstairs playing with the site now, as I work!  lol.

Pamela - Most of my pictures (including these aerial photos of golf courses) are istockphoto.com.  I have a decent library of them now, because I save them for re-use in the future.  And, of course, I take lots of photos, as well.

Margaret,  Great site.  Thanks for the info.  Definitely will make for some nice localism posts.

Margaret,
Thanks for the wonderful information!  I think this is a great business idea.

OMG that is so cool!  I hope you don't mind I will borrow that link to use on my golf related posts.  Thanks again for your great blog.

Georgina - I think a lot of real estate people will find this site helpful!

David and Kristin - I thought it was MADE for you in the golf capitol of the world!

Marc - I have a few old ones to pull up so this can be added!

Margaret- Where is this post showing up on google and for what keywords? Tighten up your keywords to get more placement. Golf is a highly competitive keyword online. Do some longtail with this post.

Margaret - I don't know any golf players. But if I do,I will definitely run this post past them. Thanks for sharing good information as usual. Great post.

Katerina - Always trying to keep me on track - it's a tough job, but someone has to do it!  You know, I could have written this as a relo post with more local keywords, but I'll do that in the FocusOnCrofton version next week.  I always try not to duplicate content exactly - and FocusOnCrofton is where I want people to go when they find me on google.  (Less competition there!)

Lanre - I suspect you'll run across some.  And you could use it for a relo post, with so many golf courses in the area - you could do a post on golf inside the beltway!  There are a few, I believe!

Margaret,

Thanks for introducing me to the site!  I'll off to play.

Mike in Tucson

Posted by Mike Jones (SUNSTREET MORTGAGE, LLC) about 4 years ago
Thanks.  Have not seen that.  There is always something new coming out.  How do we ever keep up with it.  Oh, I know, Active Rain.
Posted by Gene Allen Realtor Hampton Roads Real Estate (Resh Realty Group) about 4 years ago

Gene, That's right!  This was in our local paper, because the founders and company are local - I don't think they've really gotten the word out yet.  You're probably the first agent in your market to know about Golf Flyover.com

Mike, I'll bet you're playing now.  Ahhh, something more to distract you from ActiveRain!

Those photos are stunning, I love the one with the mountains in the background.

Cindy, I don't know if you hovered over the photo with your cursor to see the title, but that's a golf course near Sedona, Arizona.  License to both photos from istockphoto.com.

Hi Margaret, nice update on the area and options people have when moving or relocating into the area.  Makes investigating the choices easier and they have access to a great Realtor!

I love the aerials available - but many of our great attractions are not shown because the photos have not been updated... I keep checking to see if they have been updated
Posted by Thesa Chambers, Principal Broker Licensed in Oregon, with (Prudential NW Properties Sunriver) about 4 years ago

Thesa - Golf flyover is brand new - literally unveiled last month, and they have many courses to add.  I suggest you check back from time to time.

Gary - I hope you can use this tool in your business!
