We all know the majority of people start their home search online. There are a host of resources on the web that can help you find just the home you're looking for. However, with the abundance of information
available, it's difficult to know which is accurate. We're here to help
you find the facts and make your home search a heck of a lot easier.
Here are a few things you should know about popular online home search
sites:
- Much of the information is outdated. We have people call us all the time telling us how excited they are about a house they found online. However, when we check the listings we find that the house has been either sold or is under contract.
- Zillow and Trulia don't get a direct feed from the Multiple Listing Service. These and other popular home search sites gather information from non-MLS sites that often have bad information.
- There is often a real estate agent pictured with the house of interest. This leads those looking for a home to believe that the particular agent is more knowledgeable about the home and area than he or she might actually be. Leads are sold to the highest-bidding agents, so you may be seeing the picture of someone other than the listing agent.
These are, among other things, the most important reasons to take online information with a grain of salt.
Avoid the disappointment that comes with inaccurate information by
working with a professional Realtor. They are your best source for
up-to-date and accurate information, especially if you want to know
what's happening in the Bucks County market right now.
