George Washington actually grew up right here in Fredericksburg (from 1738-1752, ages 6-19) It is said that this is the place where the stories of the cherry tree and of the silver dollar (really a stone) thrown across the Rappahannock River took place
It was also an important part of where the Union lines were, during the Battle of Fredericksburg. Recentely, Archaeologists recovered the remains of the Washington's house. A National Historic Landmark, Ferry Farm includes a visitor center with exhibits and a self-guiding walking tour of the property.

<!-- --><!-- --> Precise routing technology has become a necessity for today's real estate professional. Although various GPS and mapping services already exist, to help the a realtor find his/her destination, there are currently no quick solutions offered to create organized, sequential directions from one listing to the next. 
The pairing of this routing technology with local MLS services would enable professionals to pinpoint homes, using their mls, choose a starting location, and, with the click of a button receive a comprehensive and customized route, complete with turn by turn directions, from house to house, saving time and money!

Necessity is the mother of all invention" As a Real Estate professional I have spent countless hours locating listings on a map to determine, not only the location of the homes, but, the most efficient route for showing them. I have access to mapping and GPS technology and even a navigation system in my car, which was helpful in locating specific homes, but it fell short of what I needed. I envisioned technology that would allow an agent to identify listings in the MLS, indicate a starting point, then, with a click of a button, produce a real time, geographically efficient, turn by turn, route. After months of research and development....Get Your Route was born!

Testimonials....
"Get Your Route" is not a stand alone mapping or GPS system, Our technology, integrated with local MLS systems, will streamline the process of showing homes. The agent will be provided with a detailed route, efficiently organized, as well as the mileage for each tour.The "Get Your Route" feature is a revolutionary way for real estate professionals to streamline the routing process, saving time and money. Once MLS listings have been selected the client need only click one button, designate the starting location, and the most direct route among all listings chosen is automatically mapped out in seconds. Currently there is no such feature offered on the regional MLS, which all realtors must belong to in order to access listing information. Agents need to access an additional mapping program, re-input the addresses of the homes they are attempting to visit in order to get directions. If your MLS does not have "Get Your Route" contact us..
