In hot real estate market homebuyers prioritize 5G & high-speed internet
2021年5月11日 - 9:00PM
Verizon today released findings of a new study detailing U.S.
homebuyers’ connectivity preferences following a turbulent year of
remote working and learning. The study, conducted in partnership
with Morning Consult, found that access to high-speed home internet
and fast, reliable cell service at home is a must-have for
homebuyers. Nearly 8-in-10 American homebuyers surveyed believe 5G
home internet and access to a 5G cell network increased a home’s
value. With two of America's most awarded networks, Verizon home
internet has a variety of options built for where you live, such as
Fios Home Internet and LTE Home Internet. Plus, 5G Home Internet is
available in more and more areas.
“Reliable connectivity at home and on the go is more important
than ever, as evidenced by its influence over what homebuyers look
for in a home,” said Ronan Dunne, Verizon Consumer Group CEO. “In
addition to our continued build of our 5G mobile network, our
commitment to bring 5G Home Internet to 50 million households by
2025 delivers on the excitement Americans feel for the 5G
future."
Fast cell service & home internet is a must have for
homebuyers. In fact, 90% of prospective homebuyers say it is
important that their new home have fast home internet and good
cellular service. That makes connectivity a higher priority for
homebuyers than proximity to good schools (64%), commute time
(66%), modern appliances (86%), or nearby attractions and amenities
(85%).
Pandemic Impact
- Prospective homebuyers say the coronavirus pandemic has made
fast, reliable cellular (80%) and home (85%) internet service more
important in their search for a home.
- Nearly three-quarters (73%) of prospective buyers say that
given their need for bandwidth at home, they need 5G more at home
than they do on the go.
- Two-thirds of realtors say their clients more frequently sought
information about access to broadband home internet (69%) and
cellular service (66%) over the past year than before the
pandemic.
5G can boost home values
The overwhelming majority of those shopping for a home say
access to 5G home internet (77%) and 5G cell network (75%) make a
home more valuable. Realtors agree that home values are positively
impacted by access to 5G home internet (75%) and 5G cell network
(73%).
Homebuyers express excitement about 5G benefits including higher
internet speed (90%), enhanced security (88%), simpler home
internet setup (85%), more coverage in more places (84%),
uninterrupted streaming (83%) and higher quality video calls
(82%).
