But the Internet has changed everything. How? For one, it has streamlined the entire home- selling and home-buying process, using just a few clicks of the button. Consider the following: • Nine out of 10 home buyers depend on the Internet as their first and primary source for home research; of these 98.9 percent still employ the services of real estate agents. • 52 percent of prospective buyers use the web as their top step when searching for homes (instead of newspaper classifieds, magazines, or directly seeking an agent). • 20 percent of searches related to real estate are done via mobile devices. • On average, 11 searches are performed online before home buyers decide on further action. Use the power of the Internet as part of your strategy to sell your home faster and for more, instead of letting in languish on the market and then expire. For example, the Internet is a great resource for doing research, finding a great Realtor®, posting your listing online, and generating more interest in your home. Keep reading for more strategies!
