You’ve noticed I don’t currently have a “Search for homes” function on this blog.
Yeah, I know 90% of Bellingham real estate shoppers start (and continue) their search for a home online.
They use real estate search engines like:
- www.Trulia.com
- www.Zillow.com
- www.Redfin.com
- www.REMAX.com
- www.Realtor.com
- www.Johnlscott.com
- www.Homes.com
- RealEstate.Yahoo.com
and more.
And everyone migrates to their personal favorite search engine within the first 5 searches, I’ve read.
Then they stay there. They use that search engine, exclusively, until they find their home.
Wonderful!
Personally, I think those sites are awesome, and they have monstrous budgets, and ridiculous traffic, which allows them to fine-tune the user interface.
And whichever one you love, I love it for you too, and encourage you to stay there.
All you need to do when we’re working together is send me the address, or NWMLS # of the listing you’re interested in.
I’ll look it up directly on the main database that feeds ALLLL those sites with their listings: www.NWMLS.com.
But I am curious, so please leave a comment with your answer:
What real estate search engine do you use when you’re shopping specifically for Bellingham real estate?
What do you love about it?
