Apparently web searchers are a bit pessimistic (or realistic?) about the real estate market....



Google auto-complete suggests completing the query "why is the real estate market" with: failing, bad, down, important and falling.  These results are based on Google's best guess as what you might be searching for.


The searching public is losing interest in the real estate market....



Maybe it's the continual bad news, but fewer and fewer web searchers are looking for information about the real estate market.  I suppose it's exciting to learn about and hear about the real estate market when things are going well, but when things aren't going so well....


Searching for properties for sale is quite seasonal....



It shouldn't be too surprising, but web searchers look for properties for sale in a rather regular pattern.  The two big spikes in returning interest in real estate for sale seem to be in April/May and in December of each year.
