According to the results of a 2007 Profile of Home buyers and Sellers conducted by the Orlando Regional Realtor Association over a 12-month period ending June 2007, first time homebuyers in Orlando are more likely to look online for information about the home buying process than any other source.
Additionally, 93 % of first time buyers indicated they searched for property online and those surveyed spent 4 weeks searching for a home prior to contacting an agent.
First time buyers chose to search more often on an individual agent web site than a Company site.
These results appear to reinforce the need to have a web presence that offers the ability to search for homes and also provide information about all stages of the buying process. Not having this presence could end up costing you an opportunity to work with the majority of the first time homebuyer market.
