Joint NAR/Google study shows more people use internet to research homes for sale
Real estate-related searches on Google.com have grown 253 percent over the past four years, according to a joint study from the National Association of Realtors and Google.
“These results parallel the trends shown in NAR’s economic research reports,” said NAR President Gary Thomas, broker-owner of Evergreen Realty in Villa Park, Calif. “As home sales and prices continue to trend up, more people are regaining confidence to invest in their future through homeownership.”
