Internet Home Buying and Selling Continues to Rise in South Florida
Consumers using the Internet in their homebuying process in South Florida continues to grow. Interestingly, those buyers are more likely to use a real estate agent, than not use a real estate professional according to an annual survey from the National Association of Realtors.
The National Association of Realtors, “Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers”, included survey responses from thousands of individuals who purchased a home during a one-year period of time. The seller information in the report is from those buyers who also sold a home. Home buyers who purchased a home during that time period, the highest share ever ,92 percent, used the Internet to search for a home.
The Internet is a part of getting your marketing strategy and is an important step toward getting your home sold. A good agent if priceless! It’s not all that surprising that buyers who look for homes online also research the process online. When most people begin researching something in a field that is not their specialty, it doesn't take long to see the value in hiring an expert in the field.
