Downtown San Diego Condos are perfect for today's Real Estate market. Many San Diego home buyers are interested in purchasing smaller homes with efficient living spaces and shorter commuting distances from work.
The balance between what homebuyers want and the price point is a significant factor for home builders today. Buyers are focusing more on spaces, not rooms and homes that are already designed "green".
"For many buyers, their next house will be smaller than their current one", said Carol Lavender, president of the Lavender Design Group in San Antonio, Texas. Large kitchens that are open to the main family living area, old-fashioned bathrooms with clawfoot tubs and small spaces such as wine grottos are design features that will resonate today, she said.
"What we're hearing is 'harvest' as a home theme-the feeling of Thanksgiving. It's all about family togetherness-casual living, entertaining and flexible spaces," Lavender said.
According to an annual survey of home buyer preferences, said there are several "must have" features in San Diego Downtown Condos:
1. Large kitchens, with an island. For San Diego downtown condo homebuyers granite countertops are a must for move-up buyers and buyers of luxury condominiums. Spending money on kitchen design upgrades will provide more of a return on your investment. "If you're going to spend design dollars, spend them where people want them-spend them in the kitchen," said Heather McCune, director of marketing for Bassenian Lagoni Architects in Park Ridge, Ill.
2. Granite countertops are a must for move-up buyers and buyers of condominiums, but for others "they are on the bubble," Cardis said.
3. Energy-efficient appliances, high-efficiency insulation and high window efficiency. Among the "green" features touted in homes, these are the ones buyers value most, said Cardis. While large windows had been a major draw, energy concerns are giving customers pause on those. The use of recycled or synthetic materials is only borderline desirable.
4. Home office/study. People would much rather have this space rather than, say, a formal dining room. "People are feeling like they can dine out again and so the dining room has become tradable," Cardis said. And the home theater may also be headed for the scrap heap, a casualty of the "shift from boom to correction."
5. Master suite soaker tubs. Whirlpools are still desirable for many home buyers, but they clearly went down a notch in the latest survey. Oversize showers with seating areas are also moving up in popularity.
6. Community landscaping, with walking paths. Forget about golf courses. Buyers in planned developments prefer walking among lush greenery. The Harbor Club Downtown San Diego Condos are a perfect location to walk and explore famous San Diego Dining establishments and the San Diego Bay.
