Starting this month, I am going to put together a monthly statistical update for findwell and share it with our readers of the findwell blog.
More Buyer Activity
April was a busy month for findwell agents, both for home tours and placing offers.
- findwell agents led buyer on tours of 96 homes, a 43% increase from March.
- fiona, the findwell MINI Cooper, clocked 1134 miles during home tours.
- 27% of offers placed in April were on short-sales or bank-owned properties
- We had two transactions fail in April. One offer fell apart because of lender who provided incorrect numbers on his Good Faith Estimate. The other transaction was cancelled after review of condo HOA association documents.
Sellers See Uptick in Traffic
- findwell sellers averaged 9 showings of their property for April, a 31% increase from March.
- Our agents received direct feedback from 73% of agents who showed our listings.
- For 2009, findwell’s listings have sold for an average of –0.7% off of list price and are currently averaging 46 days on market before accepting an offer.
Customers Making the Switch

- 4 customers who switched from Redfin
- 3 customers who switched from RE/MAX

findwell also hosted 26 home buyers and sellers who came to our home buying/home selling classes. findwell customers also devoured 3 large pizzas and numerous beers at our “Ask the Agent” Open House.
Customer Quote of the Month
“They toured us through homes on our schedule, and shepherded a relatively complicated sale through to completion, keeping us in the loop along the way. If we purchase another home in the area, it will definitely be through findwell, although we don’t plan to move for a good long while as the home we’re in is perfect.”
