READY TO SEARCH FOR HOMES
ONLINE AND AGENTS TOP THE LIST
The majority of buyers rely on both online resources and
guidance from a real estate agent during their home search.
This suggests that most buyers combine the self-directed
research using websites and apps with the market expertise
and human touch offered by a real estate professional. In fact,
buyers who utilize online resources during their search are more
likely to also use an agent. (77 percent versus 59 percent who do
not use online resources). 2
“Buyers enhance home search
by utilizing a real estate
professional in conjuction with
self-directed research.”
