Today we released our monthly Trulia Trends report (PDF), tracking national consumer search behavior and pricing trends data to deliver insights on how consumers use the Internet to buy and sell homes. Our “Spotlight on” feature highlights search behavior in Phoenix, Arizona—hottest neighborhoods include Central Phoenix and North Phoenix.

According to Trulia’s search data, consumers continue to search online for homes that are both “dreams and deals”. Of the top 10 most viewed homes on Trulia, the most popular was this three bedroom home in Rockingham, North Carolina at $18,590, also on the list was this Beverly Hills mansion listed at more than 1,300x that price at $24,950,000.
