Online Home Searches
Pew Internet has new data:Looking for a Place to Live, that shows that growing numbers of Internet users are looking for homes online. I am one of that number, having found both of our last two homes online first. We did work with a brick-and-mortar realtor, but both homes were discovered online first. The site I used most was Realtor.com, but individual realty sites work well too and often have different photographs and more information on the same houses you find on Realtor.
