2021 Buyers Viewed Fewer Homes

In 2021, home buyers viewed the fewest number homes prior to buying.  According to National Association of Realtor (NAR) this was a record. Low housing inventory and technology are causing buyers to decrease the number of homes they are physically touring. Buyers are first going online to view homes before making the decision to physically tour a home. They are viewing the photos and virtual tours that are available before making any decision. Having professional photos and virtual tours are very important, this improves your chances for buyers to tour the home.  If the buyer does not tour the house there is little chance, they will make an offer on the property. Previously, buyers were spending more time searching for a home, but now they do not have the luxury and are speeding up their decision-making process to prevent missing out on a deal.
