NAHB also examined preferences among
first-time buyers and repeat buyers to help
builders determine what features are most
likely to resonate in the market in 2020.
When asked which they prefer, the majority
of both first-time buyers and repeat buyers
would rather have a smaller home with highquality
products and services than a bigger
home with fewer amenities. The top features
desired by both groups include:
• Laundry rooms
• ENERGY STAR windows
• Hardwood flooring
• Walk-in pantries
• Patios
• Ceiling fans
• Kitchen double sink
These trends are reflected in this year’s Best
in American Living Award (BALA) winners
as well. For example, designers are including
flex spaces that add increased functionality
to laundry rooms, hardwood flooring and
wood finishes to add warmth and character
both inside and outside the home, and
creating outdoor spaces that seamlessly
integrate with indoor living.
