Number 2: Updated Kitchen

Whether you use your kitchen to create culinary masterpieces or as a place to put your fave take out dishes – updated kitchens are always in demand.

Number 3: Garage
Garages have become a safe place to park the car and often include workshops, flex space, areas for storage or additional outdoor space.


Number 4: Large Backyard

With ample space for two and four legged members of your crew to roam and have fun, a large backyard is an at-home lifesaver and staycation must.


Number 5: Outdoor Living Area

Beyond bedrooms and bathrooms, buyers are falling for rocking chair front porches, large decks, shady bench retreats and screened areas.


Number 6: Space for Pets

Pet parents are on the lookout for homes that make life more fun for their best buds. Outdoor areas are a must and some homes feature pet washing stations or comfy nooks and crannies for pet beds.

Number 7: Updated Bathrooms

Updated bathrooms and spa-inspired owner’s suites make a home feel welcoming and take a lot off the new homeowner’s to-do list.


Number 8: Home Office

As work life continues to change and evolve, buyers are eager to move out of hall closets and dining rooms and find dedicated space to make their home office dreams come true.


Number 9: Broadband Internet Capabilities

Life just doesn’t work when the Internet is down or moving at a snail’s pace! Another reason buyers gave Broadband Internet Capabilities the number nine spot on this list of must haves.

Number 10: Open Floor Plan
The open floor plan stayed in the top 10 for its ease of living features. With entertainment options galore and places to put all your favorite furniture, the open floor plan is here to stay!
