Sheltering in place leads to desire for more space

May 5, 2020

Sheltering in place leads to desire for more space

The shelter in place orders that have been in effect for weeks across the country have many people spending more time at home than ever before.

And after spending so much time in their homes, many of them are noticing what they don’t like about their current space — and what they’re looking for in a new home. A new survey from realtor.com asked people what they considered must-have features for their next home after sheltering in place. And, unsurprisingly, many of them had to do with space.

Some of the most common must-haves on buyers’ post-quarantine wishlist include:

  • More space (16 percent)
  • More/better outdoor space (14 percent)
  • Separation from neighbors (10 percent)
  • More bedrooms (9 percent)

So if stay-at-home orders are making you realize you’re ready for a new space (and more space), you’re not alone — and you’re not stuck. Thanks to virtual tours and closings, home sales are still happening in the midst of the coronavirus—so get in touch with your real estate agent and start looking for the space you need.

TESTIMONIALS

"I would highly recommend Russ Fortuno. He is professional, knows the area and market well, and takes care of all the details. Russ helped us sell our house quickly. He responds quickly to questions or concerns. He was great to work with."
- Jane M., Quail Creek
"Professional in every way. Russ was great to work with. He returned all my inquiries swiftly and promptly and was with me every step of the way. He was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him without question."
- Jeff P., Quail Creek
"Best in the business! We have used Russ to purchase our winter home in Arizona and soon realized we wanted to upgrade to a larger full time forever home! Alas, Russ worked his magic and found our dream home. Russ is truly one of the best agents we have ever worked with. He is knows this market and we never felt pressure to make a purchase on a house that was not quite what we were looking for. I can’t recommend him highly enough."
- Pam H., Quail Creek
