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.

"Expertise unsurpassed for Quail Creek. Russ helped us sell one home in Quail Creek and then found our current home that suits our needs better. You can rest assured that your interest is being taken care of. Russ’ concern is ensuring you are happy with your new home. The task of looking for a new home can be stressful and daunting.

- Bruce C., Quail Creek
"We had a great experience working with Russ Fortuno. After having a less than ideal experience with another real estate agent, we chose Russ to sell our home. We were very happy with his knowledge of the real estate market in our community of Quail Creek. He was very professional, and he never gave us unrealistic expectations. Russ was attentive to detail whether it be answering all our questions or having our house look perfect for photos. He was there for us until our house closed and we could not be more thankful for all his help and expertise."
- Sandra M., Quail Creek
"Above & beyond! Russ is the consummate professional. His knowledge and expertise of the market are spot on. His marketing and attention to detail were perfect. He made sure every showing had all the information and detail our house had to offer. I highly recommend anyone looking to sell their home to trust it in the hands of Russ. "
