“The value of a good place to live for a family cannot be quantified. If you can afford the cost, a home that you will live in for years to come may be worthwhile, regardless of the short-term shifts in the market.” – Robert Shiller, Yale (NYT)
And now as we ride out the COVID pandemic safely in our homes, a zoom room has become an essential home amenity ranked up there with home offices and outdoor balconies. Is the HOMESCHOOLING room the next, most fabulous desirable home amenity? You may see these room set ups trending in home staging in the near future.
Some of the adjustments being made to our homes are 100% justified and smart and will have long term appeal. But some may prove to be short-lived, and may not hold up in value post-pandemic. As a real estate expert, I can help you determine what will bring more value to your property whether you install a permanent fixture or are staging out your condo for the market.
