Top Trends for New Homebuyers in 2012

Home Trends, News
By NewHomesGuide November 1

The folks over at Rooms in Bloom Home Staging & Design Inc. have identified the top 10 features buyers are looking for.

Did your must-haves make the list? Here are a few highlights:

Trend #1: Open Concept Homes – If you’re a fan of HGTV, you’ve heard this term—open concept. It’s everywhere! Homebuyers want an open, flowing main floor layout. Gone are the days of separate rooms for separate functions.

Trend #2: Smart Storage Solutions – If you’re like most buyers today, you want all your ‘stuff’ to have its place, but remain accessible. Building smart storage solutions into smaller places is key!

Trend #3: Efficiency – ENERGY STAR®-certified light fixtures and appliances not only reduce our impact on the environment, they reduce the cost of homeownership, and who doesn’t love that??

Click here for more details on the top home features for 2012, and as always, happy house hunting!
