Big Homes in Brentwood Ca

Big Homes in Brentwood Ca

People might quibble over what constitutes a Big Home and many people think Big Homes are a thing of the past. I hear talk of sustainable, green, back to basics, and small living.

I am here to disagree. I think Big Homes are very important and will make a big come back. Here is why I think Big Homes are in our future:

1. More and more people will move to self employment and/or telecommuting. They will want to work out of the home.

2. Although I believe we have a great country and will recover from this economic down turn I do think economics will mean more multi-generational homes. Again this means bigger homes, in-law units, and all that come with it.

3. This country has been trending away from traditional and large families for 40+ years. I think that trend will begin to reverse itself. Part of the reason will be economics, but part of it will be a return to traditional values.

4. People like to be home more. A lot of socializing has moved to the internet (for good or bad) and people keep a closer eye on their kids. There is less roaming and more at home. You can argue that these are bad trends and I might agree; but that fact is people want a home that they can do stuff in. They would rather stay home than go out.

5. Home schooling is a growing trend. People will need room at home for education.

6. I think Americans like to live large. If they can afford it they want the best/the biggest/newest/trendiest. This is true for a lot of things – Including Homes.

7. Big Homes are Green and Socially positive. Although a Big Home might cost more and take more utilities the cost per person in a Big Home can be substantially less. Large family units living in Big Homes tend to live cheaper per person than those that live alone. Large Family units can be more self sustaining.

   Big Homes might not be popular now. People are trying to get by, but I think that trend will turn around in a year or two. A Big Home is a good investment and Big Homes are priced right in Brentwood CA.

   A Big Home Buying Tip – Always make sure there is at least one bedroom and a full bath downstairs. Even if you don't need a downstairs bedroom now you may in the future and it will help the resale value.
