Home Moving Trends Survey

There's been some big traffic numbers from many of the portals recently, but how many of these visitors are active in the market and actually selling a home? This time last year 95% of active home movers had never heard of Globrix and 25% were using Google all the time to search for property.

This is a constantly evolving space and those stats are from a whole year ago. We need your help to find out what's really going on now...

For the 3rd consecutive year, the Home Moving Trends Survey will provide estate agents with actionable insight into the behaviours of the customers you value the most; your vendors. The survey is only open to those who are currently selling or have recently sold a property.

We are asking agents to encourage as many of their vendors as possible to take part to ensure we have a broad and diverse sample of results. Questions include:

How long did you look at properties before putting yours on the market?
What is your primary reason for moving?
What was important to you in selecting agents to value your property?
What influenced your final decision on appointing an agent to sell your property?

The results in previous years have confirmed or denied many commonly held beliefs. Nearly ten times as many people said fees were not an issue in selecting an agent as said they were last year.

Every agent who generates more than 20 responses to the survey will receive a free summary of the results and findings once the survey has concluded.

You will find a template e-mail to send to vendors here.

Or alternatively, you can direct vendors straight to homemovingtrends.com

The survey runs from now until 31st October.
