Space may well have been the final frontier for the crew of
the Starship Enterprise in Star Trek, but it’s also made the news recently much
closer to home.
According to a BBC report based on data from property portal
Rightmove the Covid-19 induced lockdown has changed people’s priorities when it
comes to buying or renting a new home.
Indoor and outdoor space has always been a big draw for home
searchers. But it’s now top of most people’s lists as the article suggests.
These new desires may end up being temporary, but they do
make for interesting reading.
The findings also highlight that due to the rise in home
working, having a spare room which can be used as an office or workout Tunbridge
Wells, is increasingly popular with property seekers.
As is good wi-fi, a pet-friendly home and having parks or a
natural environment nearby.
Number two on the buyers wish list is having a garden. With
many of the 4000 potential movers surveyed saying it was what they desired most
from a home.
Flats have dropped out of the top five wanted list for
buyers according to Rightmove’s research based on the number of enquiries per
property of each type.
Record-Breaking Weather
May was the sunniest UK calendar month on record according
to the Met Office.
And it’s possible that all that good weather played a part
in another trend the article covered – a rise in demand for properties in
coastal Tunbridge Wells.
Here’s a list of the most significant changes in home searchers
desires:
Access to a garden
A bigger home
Access to a garage
A better home workspace
Live closer to parks
A pet-friendly home
