Surfing Online

More and more we are going to the age of everything being done online and Real Estate is no different. Chances are if you are going to buy a home this year, you will start out by searching the web for homes and home mortgages.

With the National Association of Realtors saying that more than 90% of all home buyers locate their Realtor or a home to buy by Google searching, this means we must pay attention to services offered online.

What are buyers and surfers looking for? They want to find property and homes that have the virtual tours showing lots of pictures and information about the subject properties. They also want to be able to send the web listings to other members of their family or friends email.

Before today’s buyers call a real estate agent they want to know what is available to them and have the information in their head before they make the call. Sellers are also requiring their agent to have the online marketing ability because they realize the importance of having their house displayed for all to see. Offering the tools and information necessary for buyers and sellers is the new real estate.
