Those that have retired Look for ways to Build Smaller, Custom Homes

July 24, 2017 by Nick & Cindy Davis

The majority of people hope to downsize their residence once they have retired, but not their home buying wish list. Retirees reportedly are flocking to smaller newly built homes that happen to be customized to their own personal needs and tastes.

Those that have retired Look for ways to Build Smaller, Custom Homes

 

One advantage retired real estate buyers find with these custom homes is simply because they can certainly be built to accommodate health issues or physical restrictions, which include wider hallways to support mobility devices. The home can also be outfitted with age-in-place features which include outdoor ramps and lower kitchen cabinets.

People who have retired would like to scale back on home maintenance and repairs, which explains why their preferences are straying away from larger, older homes. However, building a custom home can certainly be stressful simply because of the wide availability of options. Real estate experts recommend researching building plans and contractors carefully to ensure that buyers receive the kind of craftsmanship they seek.
