February 1st, 2010 Posted in Buyer's Corner
What is it that new home buyers are looking for in their homes? Here’s a list of 10 things from an annual survey about what buyers want in a home:
- Large kitchens with islands
- Energy efficiency, including energy-efficient appliances, super insulation, and high-efficiency windows.
- Home offices
- Main-floor master suite
- Outdoor living space
- Ceiling fans
- Soaking tub in the master suite and/or an oversize shower with a seating area
- Stone and brick exteriors rather than stucco or vinyl
- Community walking paths and playgrounds
- Two-car garages, but three-car garages are even more desirable
