Coldwell Banker ranks highest among home sellers in JD Power survey!


· Among home sellers, Coldwell Banker ranks highest with a score of 815 and performs particularly well in all four factors.

· The study finds that the proportion of first-time home buyers has increased considerably—to 56 percent in 2009 from 44 percent in 2008. Many of these first-time buyers may be attracted by improved home affordability and the perception of a strong buyer’s market. This presents both challenges and opportunities for real estate companies.

· Home sellers report that, on average, 3.2 open houses were conducted for their property in 2009, compared with 4.5 in 2008.

· Approximately 64 percent of home sellers used a Web site listing to market their home in 2009, up from 61 percent in 2008.
