topozone.com will do an address search to get you in the general area.
However, they then want to sell you a "Map Pack." If you already know the
general area, you can just their topo maps. The lat/long for the center of
the map is displayed at the top.

I entered my address into Yahoo maps and it was off by 12 houses. I
would
suggest printing a satellite map and ask him to show you his house. That
way he
know what his house will look like for the air. Most people have a hard
time
id'ing there house from the air.


Good point. I got a similar result on mine and a couple of others as
well.
To their credit. they did show houses on the correct streets.

However, using an admittedly older os, yahoo is currently the only service
that seems to give me a lat-lon from an address.
