Have your home preferences changed since 2020? What home features are you finding yourself wanting now that weren't as big of a priority before last year? Tell me in the comments!
If you've found yourself sharing an office with your spouse trying to figure out who has what Zoom call, running a classroom out of your kitchen or running out of room in general, you're not alone!
- MULTI-USE KITCHENS THAT CAN BE USED FOR ZOOM CALLS, CLASSROOMS, COOKING AND ENTERTAINING
- SPACE THAT CAN BE UTILIZED AS HOME OFFICE SPACE (IE: ZOOM ROOMS, QUIET ROOMS)
- SMART HOME TECH IE: AUTOMATIC AND MOTION SENSOR LIGHTING, SMART PHONE CONTROLLED HOME TECH, AND VOICE ACTIVATED CONTROLS
- OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES THAT BECOME A RELAXING RETREAT AS WELL AS EXTRA SPACE FOR ENTERTAINING OUTDOORS. OUTDOOR KITCHENS, AUDIO SYSTEMS AND TRELLISES WILL BECOME MORE POPULAR
- CALMING ENVIRONMENTS WITH NEUTRAL COLORS, LOTS OF NATURAL LIGHT, INDIRECT LIGHTING AND COLORS THAT BRING THE OUTDOORS IN TO FEEL LIKE A COZY SANCTUARY
- DEDICATED SPACE FOR AT-HOME WORKOUTS WILL BE IMPORTANT. OUTDOOR WORKOUT SPACE OF DEDICATED INDOOR AREAS WILL BE VITAL
- REPURPOSING OF EXISTING ROOMS TO MAKE THEM MULTI FUNCTIONAL IE: A GUEST BEDROOM THAT DOUBLES AS A HOME OFFICE, LAUNDRY ROOMS THAT INCORPORATE ROOM FOR A WORKSPACE OR HOMEWORK AREA
- AN INCREASE IN GARDENING AS A MEANS TO GETTING MORE FRESH AIR AND BEING OUTDOORS - PEOPLE GROWING VEGETABLES IN THEIR BACKYARDS, UTILIZING RAISED GARDEN BEDS, WINDOW BOXES AND MORE
Interest rates are still hovering at all time lows so if you're ready to start your hunt for a space that better suits your needs, I'm only one phone call or text away!
