Whether you’re thinking of selling soon or have an eye on remodeling with solid return-on-investment potential, think about which features make your home oh-so-desirable when it’s time to list. Ananalysis of the Realtor.com listings over the past five years found that the following items were listed most often, solidifying a venerable spot among buyers’ favorites:
- Fireplace
- Wood floor
- Carpet
- Granite counter
- Stainless steel appliances
- Open floor plan
- Walk-in closet
- Formal dining room
- Vaulted ceiling
- Open kitchens
Do trends lose steam? Oak and cherry cabinets had a strong foothold in the cabinet marketplace but are no longer popular.
