Ulster County REAL Estate Update - The Taft Street Realty Online Home Search Experience

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Dylan Taft Broker/Owner Taft Street Realty, Inc.

LapTopToday, the Internet has become the number one source for real estate information. A large majority of real estate buyers begin their home search online, and so the agent or brokerage is no longer the first point of contact in the Ulster County NY home search process. Buyers and sellers (those with access to the technology, and who have the time) can find virtually all the information they need to buy or sell without having to meet or even consult with a single agent right away. Sure, they may link up with an agent eventually and view a few properties in person, but a large amount of searching occurs right in front of the computer where there is no sales pressure or obligation to choose an agent right out of the gate. These days, the brick-and-mortar brokerage with the people behind the desks are no longer perceived as the primary or only source of real estate information. In fact, the first showing of a home for a buyer is really online.  With google & bing maps, street & “bird’s eye” views, buyers can easily rank and/or eliminate homes without even seeing them in person.  If the home is next to a landfill or near a busy highway, a buyer can now figure that out without needing an agent. So have real estate agents become obsolete? Absolutely not! In fact, having a good agent to help you is more important than ever, even with the presence of new technologies.  Finding the best Ulster County real estate agent to help negotiate the deal, or even simply to help guide you through the most common buyer pitfalls, is still extremely critical to a sucessful home purchase.  Taft Street Realty not only has the best agent-to-client services, but they also have the web presence and online search tools to make even the most descerning home buyer very happy!

Providing Real Estate Tools to Buyers and Sellers

MouseThis DIY approach to real estate is something we here at Taft Street embrace. We understand that much of the “nuts and bolts” information that once required a broker's help—a home's asking price, condition, square footage, vital statistics, annual property taxes, age, amenities, etc.—is now directly available, in real-time, to today's web-savvy home buyer. Taft Street Realty recognized the shift long ago and has focused on creating an online home search experience like no other. With a robust website and the most powerful real estate search engine in Ulster County NY, we already know much of the actual researching on homes can be done by the buyers and sellers themselves. We simply provide them with the best tools! Buyers and sellers can conduct all of their online research without ever leaving taftstreetrealty.com. Created during the digital age for digital age buyers and sellers, Taft Street Realty focuses primarily on our online presence because we know that’s how real estate business is conducted these days!
