LUXURY AMENITIES IN DEMAND
SMALLER PROPERTIES ECO-FRIENDLY
Ostentatious displays of wealth are seeing a decline as today’s
luxury buyers prefer smaller homes over the traditionally larger,
luxurious masterpieces. Buyers are instead choosing to spend more
money on amenity-rich spaces and sanctuaries that better suit
their lifestyles, such as a private gym, IMAX theater or his-and-her
master suites. Conservation and sustainability are not just buzzwords anymore.
Today’s buyers seek out solar panels and conservation systems that
will help reduce their home’s carbon footprint.
SMART HOME AUTOMATION
Just as buyers look for smartphones and cars, they want equally
smart homes with the ability to control the temperature, security,
entertainment and more with the press of a button or the sound of
their voice.
CUSTOM DESIGN AND FEATURES
Imported, hand-painted, artisan: Buyers want to know the unique
nature of all the materials and details so that they can share their
home’s story with family and friends.
ENCLOSED SPACES FOR SPORTS
Enclosed spaces for large-scale sports such as hockey rinks,
basketball and tennis courts, and more are in demand for active buyers.
