If you’re in the market for a house and a husband, you might want to check out Cyberhomes.com, a new Web site that offers house hunters a complete listing of how many singles live in Zip codes nationwide.
The site offers additional information that can come in handy for singles interested in scoping out the dating potential of different areas of town, such as an area’s male to female ratio and the level of education of its current home owners.
Real estate agents are applauding the new site as young, single clients often ask whether or not a neighborhood is a good place to meet other singles. The fact is: most singles want to live in areas where other singles live.
What’s more, agents say with the current state of the real estate market, it’s only natural that buyers have begun seeking out information other than housing prices when scoping out neighborhoods.
Married house hunters with children can also benefit from the site. On it, they can find out how many households have children, the student to teacher ratios in area schools and the average test scores for the neighborhood school compared to state figures.
The site is published by Fidelity National Financial, which runs the nation’s largest title agency. Because the site is able to draw from Fidelity National’s mountain of MLS listings—about 4 million are added daily—it has an advantage over potential competitors who would have to rely on public tax data.
