Buyers: Bring on the Open Houses
More than 90 percent of potential home buyers plan to attend open houses as they look for a home to buy, according to a survey conducted for Trulia.com.
Here’s how they find out about properties open to view:
- 62 percent use online sites to find open houses.
- 53 percent use information provided to them by real estate professionals.
- 36 percent use neighborhood signs.
- 31 percent use information in the newspaper or other printed source
“We used to see home buyers walk into open houses with a newspaper in their hands,” says Aman Daro, vice president of Integrated Marketing at McGuire Real Estate in San Francisco. “Now they walk in with printouts of their search on the Web.”
