This annual survey conducted by the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® of recent home buyers and sellers provides detailed information about their experiences with their real estate transactions. Here are highlights from the latest report.

• At 30 percent, the primary reason for purchasing a home was the desire to own a home of their own.
• Eighty-seven percent of buyers recently purchased their home through a real estate agent or broker.
• Eighty-eight percent of buyers would use their agent again or recommend their agent to others.
• Only eight percent (down from nine percent) of recent home sales were FSBO sales. This is the lowest share recorded since this report started in 1981.
