Generation Y (born between 1977-1994) this is the latest group that will revolutionize the Real Estate business and it has already started.

Generation Y Collaborative, peer group influenced, the most educated, fun, and impatient group of all generations. Their communication techniques are completely different to the elder generations and it will be done their way or the highway. Text messaging, Chatting, and Twitter have become some of their favorite ways to communicate. They are engaging in social networking sites including YouTube, Facebook, and Myspace.
