June 20 2016
Commute time to work, school, shopping, and retail has become an important determining factor for Millennials in the midst of a homebuying search. In fact, nearly three-fourths of people born in the 1980s and 1990s rate convenience and access as critical factors in their home purchase decision.
For REALTORS®, finding a home for these folks just got a lot easier.
RPR's newly-enhanced Drive Time search option includes the ability to filter by day of the week, time of day, and length of journey. The function even includes walking times. That kind of pinpoint precision is invaluable for clients who want to spend less time in the car and more time building and enjoying a good quality of life.
While searching for homes using Drive or Walk Time filters, consider tapping into RPR's Points of Interest (POI), also found on maps. POIs help to paint a complete picture of what the search area offers, such as retail, recreation, arts and entertainment, grocery, restaurants, hospitals, and more. View POIs by selecting the POI button on the large version of any map shown on the Search, Property Details or Search Results page.
