Washington Real Estate Web Trends - BTS 08

September 19, 2008

Summer vacation is history and its Back To School for the kids.  As expected, traffic for our main real estate site at www.nwrealty.com decreased about 13% from July.  Here’s the surprise … Our competing sites seemed to hold steady and a couple even showed slight increases.

The larger sites that we monitor (publishing real estate from multiple states) also seemed to hold steady.  But windermere.com recaptured its position on top with a 7% increase while Redfin experienced a 7% drop in visitors.

The historical seasonal trend indicates Washington real estate traffic will drop slightly during the month of September.  But as hunting season draws nearer so does a spike in business for brokerages in the more remote areas of Washington due to the influx of sportsmen into theses market areas.
