Millennials: A New Source for Increased Listings.

Howdy folks,

Tim here, how’s your week going?
With inventory at record lows, it’s imperative to secure listing opportunities by any means necessary. Agreed?

This includes targeting the hottest homebuyer demographic in the nation: millennials.
The logic behind this? Your homebuyers become your homeowners, and your homeowners eventually become your home sellers. So, let’s start at the very beginning (a very good place to start) – pre-paving more listings by securing more homebuyers (i.e. – your eventual home sellers). Sound good?

A few critical statistics:
– “Millennials [are] the nation’s largest living generation.
– “Millennials make up 42% of all homebuyers overall, first-time or not.
– “Millennials are 56% of America’s first-time homebuyers.” (Source: https://goo.gl/l71hcT)

Another recent report from the American Press Institute found that:
88% of Millennials get their news from Facebook.” (Source: https://goo.gl/Wi3l5P)

A second report states the obvious: “Millennials Are Digital Shoppers
The same study concluded that: “For both social networks and advertisers [realtors and agents] to attract Millennials, they need to offer valuable content, whether that’s new features or useful information.” (Source: https://goo.gl/8sDv5Q)
