Laundry Chutes - The Ultimate Modern Amenity!With prospective home buyers looking to get more value from their new home, we have some tips that will make that impression to maximise the chances of achieving the greatest sale price with new and existing homes. So with this in mind we need to be asking ourselves two questions, 1. What should you be including in your housing development? 2. What will the future home buyers expect to see when they are looking for that perfect home living space? With technology, such as smart phones, smart houses and applications, constantly growing and improving people's lives it's only fitting that home owners of the future are expecting similar advances within their homes. Now, there are the standard features that people have come to expect when looking into purchasing their new home. Of course, firstly it's all about the location. Some will desire the spacious, light open plan living where as others might be looking for a smaller, cosier living space to call home. Next, prospective buyers are looking features such as high spec kitchens, fitted with dark marble worktops and contemporary cupboards and appliances. They also need lots of built-in storage spaces; these are a necessity in the modern world we're living in! We live in a consumer driven society and homeowners want the peace of mind that there will be plenty of room for their worldly possessions. A newer feature that buyers are interested in is a separate utilities or laundry room. In fact, recent studies by the National Association of Home Builders (USA) have concluded that a laundry room is one of the top features, within a typical family home, in 2014. We believe that Laundry Chutes will also become a modern necessity that the future home buyer cannot be without, in having a Laundry Chute integrated in the home, laundry will no longer be an endless chore of trudging up and down the stairs and yelling at the kids to bring down their dirty clothes and towels, as all dirty laundry can be dropped right to the homeowner's washing machine. Homeowners are looking to the future, using technology to improve their quality of life, energy efficiency, security and the cost of living. Homeowners are more conscious than ever about being secure within their home. Our homes are our sanctuary, a place where we eat, sleep, raise a family and entertain our friends and extended family with the help of our fantastic entertainment system! It's not surprising that motion activated exterior lights and break sensors on windows and doors are increasing in popularity. And with amenities such as gas and electricity increasing in price annually, energy efficient items such as LED light bulbs and effective insulation in every crevice are a must; both buyers and sellers are coming to realise the importance of having that 'A' rated Energy Performance Certificate. So here's the top 5 features that home buyers are looking for right now, we've even put these features in order of necessity to help you prioritise too!
