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.

TESTIMONIALS

"Russ was impressive from the first moment we met him. We were looking at a property in a complex where he just happened to be previewing a unit. We asked if he was a real estate agent and he dropped what he was doing to show us some properties in the same complex. From that moment forward he was attentive, responsive and showed us that he knew the area and was helpful in looking for the right property for us. He got us through the process with ease and even went the extra mile in the offer process to make sure we made the best effort to secure our choice. Can’t say enough about him. Russ is truly a professional in the best sense of the word. "

"All I can about Russ Fortuno is that he did a excellent job in the complete process of selling my home. I would recommend him to other people. He knows local knowledge and his process expertise was very good.He respond to all my question and kept me informed of any new items that came up. He did a excellent job in the negotiations with the buyer agent. I couldn’t have picked a better agent to handle the sell of my property. "
- D.F., Sahuarita AZ
"My husband and I are honored to recommend Russ Fortuno as the most efficient and professional real estate professional we have had. We feel very blessed to have found Russ while we were still in North Carolina. We planned to relocate to Green Valley, AZ and were interested in establishing a rapport and receiving listings prior to moving cross-country. By the time we arrived Russ pretty much knew what we were looking for. Even though the inventory was not terribly plentiful at the time we found our home the very first day we went looking!!! In addition to helping us find the perfect home, Russ was wonderful to refer us to local contractors and professionals in our area. He is a wealth of information and took the time to answer any questions we had. We also felt the step-by-step timeline Russ includes in his service was very helpful."
- M.P., Green Valley, AZ
