ZipRealty.com recently launched the online real estate game "Price Me Now," awarding players an IQ score based on predicted sale prices of for-sale homes in Boston, Seattle and the San Francisco Bay Area. Free to play at www. 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. A player's Property IQ is based on a number of factors, including the accuracy of the player's prediction of the final sales price, once a home has sold.

Thousands of for-sale homes in Boston, Seattle and the San Francisco Bay Area are included in the ZipRealty.com "Price Me Now" game. Before entering a prediction, players are encouraged to review all photos and home details available through the game.

"With the market changing daily, everyone seems to have an opinion of the value of listed homes, and we're excited to engage the growing ZipRealty.com community with this real estate prediction game," said Patrick Lashinsky, ZipRealty's president. "This game also introduces players to ZipRealty.com features and tools to help them with their real world real estate decisions."

"Price Me Now," developed by the gaming company Realius, is both an easy-to-use real estate game and a prediction market for residential real estate. Players who register have their IQ score saved and continuously updated compared to other players. Names of individual players who make ten or more predictions will be listed on the ZipRealty.com Leader Board for the community to review.

"We're excited to introduce the 'Price Me Now' game for members of the ZipRealty.com community to help predict home prices in their local markets," said Chuck Teller, Realius' founder.
