On Realtor.com there is an article about 7 trends that Hanley-Wood’s ProSalesOnline.com identified as trends that will have the most impact on housing in 2011. One trend they mention is the size of houses being built. Many builders are sizing down the size of house since the real estate boom ended and buyers have became more budget conscious. They predict due to this trend you will see more and more people wanting sheds for their home. Also another trend that is very noticeable in the real estate industry is people wanting homes that are more energy efficient. The national association of realtors even created a designation for real estate agents, who want to become more educated about energy efficient homes, called the Green Designation. NAR’s Green Designation means the agent has had advanced training in green building and sustainable business practices so they can seek out, understand, and market properties with green features. Read the article to learn about all 7 trends they predict to drive the housing market.
