In-Demand Home Features

September 16, 2025

When selling your home, highlighting unique or sought-after features in your marketing will bring as many potential buyers to the table as possible. So, what are some features worth highlighting? Here are some that today’s buyers often look for:

  • Energy-efficient features, such as ENERGY STAR® windows and appliances, and smart lighting and thermostats.
  • Updated rooms like kitchens or bathrooms, or new home systems, such as HVAC or roofing.
  • Ample kitchen counter space and cabinets.
  • Focal points like a fireplace, large bay window, or French doors.
  • A laundry area, with a place to fold and iron.
  • Built-in storage, such as closets, lessening the need for dressers.
  • Hardwood floors for their natural look and typically easy maintenance.
  • Outdoor seating areas.
  • Large garages for multiple vehicles and extra storage space.
  • Exterior lighting, for aesthetics and safety.

Investing in some of these features can boost your condo’s appeal when it’s time to sell.
