The Harris Poll recently conducted a survey where they asked kids under the age of 18 whose parents were purchasing a property what they look for in a home. Here were the top six answers:1. To have their own room. 57% of the children polled wanted their own room and to not have to share with a sibling. 2. A large backyard. 34% wanted a place where they could play and have friends over. 3. Proximity to a park. 25% wanted to live within walking distance to a park.
Most of all, kids wanted their own room.
4. Closeness to school. 24% wanted to be closer to a school so that they wouldn’t have to ride a bus—they’d rather get dropped off by their parents or ride a bike or skateboard to school. 5. Being closer to friends. 24% didn’t want to have to rely on their parents to drop them off at friends’ homes. 6. A swimming pool. 21% wanted their home to have a swimming pool or at least have access to an HOA pool for when summertime hits. If you have any questions about how these findings affect you as a buyer or seller or you have any other real estate needs, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’d love to help you.
