According to Comscore, overall traffic going to real estate sites in the month of February is up, year over year. This may be good news for the market, showing an increase in overall consumer interest in the real estate market. 

Not much new here, however top apartment and rental related sites are showing an overall decrease in consumer interest, which I did find interesting.

Michael, I find this chart very interesting. Like you, I am surprised about the rental/lease sites. With all of the foreclosures you would have thought they would have seen an increase. The other numbers are encouraging! Thanks for posting!

My open houses have been busy.  I think there is a lot of pent up demand, recession or not.  I just think people read the news and are fearful that the house they buy will forever lose value instead of taking a long-term view.
