THE INTERNET DOES WORK!

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Community Partners

 We hear Internet statistics everyday. 90% of home buyers start their search on the Internet, no 96% start their search, or some statistic in between. We hear about these numbers but it is only relevant when it affects us directly.

Our last two contracts were a direct result of the Internet.

Both buyers are relocating from other states. Both buyers did their research through various Internet websites. Besides looking directly at homes they were also able to research schools, and other demographic information.

Both buyers put contracts on their respective homes after looking only twice.

We have always emphasized the power of the Internet to our clients. It is a integral part of our listing presentations.

Now we have some proof to back up our claims.

Take a look at our listings on our website: www.randywellsteam.com

Its incredible how much this percentage has climbed.  Just 3 years ago it was 78%.  People need to get serious about their market focus on the Internet.

Randy, I was able to start my own brokerage through the leads I get off of my website.  The way people look at homes has changed in the last few years and the Internet is where they start.

I get a lot of leads from the internet BUT I will say I also get some of the most difficult clients as well.  I love the internet and know it is the current frontier with Social Media being the current to new.

I can't remember working with a buyer who has not used the internet to look for homes even before they contacted us.  The internet is the real estate market and it leads them to professionals who can help them do the tough part, sorting out and getting the home under contract.
