Prudential Real Estate and Relocation Services commissioned Prudential’s Global Market Research Group to survey consumers between the ages of 25-64 who are in the market to buy a home. Our 2011 survey found that Americans are significantly more optimistic about real estate today than a year ago and, despite economic volatility, their belief in real estate as a good investment is unshaken. In fact, most feel that the real estate market and property values will see recovery in the next year or two, and they highlighted the importance of real estate agents in the home-buying and selling process.

We shared survey findings with Sales Convention attendees March 7-8, and then launched a media blitz in the early-morning hours of March 10 starting with PRERS Chairman Jim Mallozzi conducting 21 live television and radio interviews and two taped sessions. Survey coverage was picked up by 174 TV stations and national radio programs representing more than 25 million viewers and listeners. Click TV News Coverage to watch a sampling of the interviews.

At 9 (Eastern) that morning, we blanketed the national and regional press as well as real estate trade publications with our press release, “Americans Confident in Recovery of Real Estate Market.” The Wall Street Journal was among the first to file stories. When the dust finally settled our press release generated 19,503 headline impressions on the Internet.

Local press coverage of our survey findings shows that our affiliates are using the survey press release template, which is attached below along with accompanying PowerPoint slides. The entire process heightens Prudential brand awareness and underscores our Network’s position as the authority on residential real estate.

Americans are demonstrating a more bullish outlook for the real estate market today. Despite recent economic volatility, consumer belief in real estate as a good investment is unshaken.

In fact, the majority of America’s potential homebuyers and sellers—68 percent—believe that the real estate market and property values will recover in the next year or two, according to the 2011 Prudential Real Estate Outlook Survey released yesterday.

“Our survey clearly demonstrates that Americans continue to be optimistic about the real estate market and believe that home prices will rise,” says Jim Mallozzi, CEO of Prudential Real Estate and Relocation Services. “A key takeaway from the survey is although consumers recognize that it is a good time to buy, they are concerned about their ability to sell their homes. This is one of the reasons the market is still struggling to recover.”

Additionally, the majority of respondents—75 percent—highlighted the importance of real estate agents in the process of buying or selling their home. “Americans continue to see real estate agents as having a very important role in helping them price, buy and sell their homes,” adds Mallozzi. “Although the data underscores the value real estate agents provide, it also shows that the industry needs to continue to work hard to meet clients’ unique needs.”

The Prudential Real Estate Outlook Survey of 1,253 Americans between the ages of 25-64 in the market for buying a home was conducted Jan. 20-27.
