Today we are asking a practical question. Can you get a leading indicator of what is happening in real estate before monthly or quarterly reports from the major brokerages? 

If you really want to look at the leading indicators, how would you do it? How could you do it? 

Well, as it turns out, Brokerages like Redfin and Zillow can see activity before it appears in the monthly statistics. They see searches, appointments, open houses, offers, cancellations, and pending contracts. How can an ordinary investor get closer to that same information and understand where the market is moving before the headlines catch up?
