Real Estate Word of the Day: Amenities
Amenities are elements of a property or its surroundings that contribute to its attractiveness to potential buyers and to owner satisfaction. A feature is considered an amenity when it provides a benefit to the location or contributes to its enjoyment, therefore increasing the value of the property. Some examples of special extraneous amneities include a swimming pool, parking (garage, driveway, or other), patio/deck, and a BBQ area. ENERGY STAR® approved products are also great amenities to market your home with. If you don't have any of these in your property, don't worry! Basic amenities such as bedrooms, bathrooms, and flooring can also add to the marketing value of a property; for example: hardwood flooring throughout a home, or granite countertops in a kitchen. It is important to work with a real estate agent to market the features of your home or property. If you are a buyer looking to purchase your future home, it's important to know what you are looking for. Consider your choices and inform your real estate agent so that they can help to find the ideal home for you.
