Young Realtors Serve Generation X And Y Consumers By Bringing Special Skills To Buyers And Sellers
WASHINGTON (June 2, 2006) – More homebuyers than ever are 30 years old or younger, and a record number of Realtors under 30 – nearly 150,000 – are connecting with the Generation X and Y markets. Thirty of these young Realtors are being recognized in the June issue of REALTOR Magazine’s “30 under 30” – Realtors who have made their mark in the industry and their communities while still in their 20s.
“As new generations enter the housing market, the real estate industry must adapt to meet changing needs and ways of doing business,” said Thomas M. Stevens, 2006 National Association of Realtors president from Vienna, Va., and senior vice president of NRT Inc. “Many of our younger members add value to their clients’ real estate transactions through their generational sensitivities and diverse skill sets. They don’t know a real estate industry without the Internet, technology is second-nature to them, and they speak their clients’ language, often both literally and figuratively.”
According to data from the U.S. Census, more immigrants are becoming homeowners than ever before, and seven of this year’s Realtors under 30 are either immigrants themselves or children of immigrants. José Rivera Sinclair, from Northfield, N.J., is a native of Honduras, and Latino homebuyers compose 80 percent of his business. Penny Liu moved to California from Taiwan as a child and works with U.S. buyers purchasing property in Shanghai, Beijing, and Nanjing. Tempe, Ariz.’s Steven Haddad, the youngest professional on the list at age 20, speaks fluent Arabic – his father emigrated from Jordan.
Another trend affecting real estate is the growing influence of the Internet as a resource in the home search. According to the 2005 NAR Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, 42 percent of buyers who used the Internet to search for a home were 34 or younger. Realtors of this generation have embraced new technologies – 28 of the “30 under 30” operate Web sites for their business – and many of them go beyond this basic technology. David Scher from Boston used the skills he developed in his previous career in information technology to customize an MLS listing feed to 20 different sites for his customers. Jessica Horton from Griffin, Ga., wasn’t satisfied with video home tours – she markets properties with video tours of entire communities.
“Younger home buyers and sellers are already having a big impact on real estate markets across the country,” said Stevens. “Our Realtor members, whether they grew up watching I Love Lucy or IMing their friends, are honored to be bringing the American dream of homeownership to the next generation and beyond.”
