The biggest benefit of using a real estate agent during buyers’ home search was the help they provided understanding the process, with young home shoppers ranking that benefit particularly high. Also, buyers appreciated agents who pointed out unnoticed features and faults with the property. These were just some of the findings of the 2019 Home Buyers and Sellers Generational Trends Report.
According to the survey, eighty-seven percent of all buyers purchased their home through a real estate agent–and that figure rose to 92 percent among buyers 28 and younger.
