While browsing real estate listings is a necessary step for all homebuyers, a growing number of French people consult them even without having a purchase in mind: an activity that 13% engage in at least once a week.

Is real estate a source of dreams and inspiration ?
Curiosity is another reason cited by the French. 34% say they enjoy learning about other people’s living environments. Real estate also proves to be a source of dreams and inspiration. A quarter of those surveyed mentioned wanting to imagine themselves in someone else’s daily life. This trend is even more pronounced among 18-24 year olds (38%), with women showing a greater interest (29%) than men (20%). A slightly smaller proportion (24%) is the search for decorating ideas, again with a predominantly female following (26% compared to 21% of men).
