What are the Today's Trends?

If you're anything like me when it comes to real estate, you might be curious about the possibilities that lie ahead in 2024. While we can't predict with absolute certainty, let's explore some potential trends that experts believe could shape the San Ramon Valley and Tri-Valley real estate market.

Continued Demand for Housing - It's no secret that the San Ramon Valley and Tri-Valley areas are highly desirable places to live. With a good economy number in the last few months, beautiful landscapes, and great schools, it's easy to see why so many people want to call these areas home. As we look forward to 2024, this trend is likely to continue, meaning that buying a home in these areas may still be a competitive and challenging process but at a slower pace.

Impact of Generational Shifts - As millennials and Gen Z become the largest groups of homebuyers, we may see a shift in demand for different types of homes. These younger generations tend to prioritize amenities like walkability, access to public transportation, and proximity to entertainment and cultural activities, as well as traditional needs, which include top schools. This could potentially lead to a surge in demand for townhouses, condos, and homes closer to city centers. Additionally, with an increase in remote work opportunities, more buyers may be looking for homes with dedicated office spaces.

Evolving Technology - Technology continues to play a significant role in the real estate industry, and this trend is expected to continue into 2024. As virtual tours and online property listings continue to gain popularity, it's becoming easier for buyers to view and compare properties remotely. This can save time and make the home-buying process more convenient for busy professionals.

Do you know your Non-Negotiables?

When it comes to buying or selling a home, it's crucial to determine your non-negotiables. These are the must-haves that you simply cannot compromise on, no matter what. As we look ahead to 2024, it's essential to consider how these non-negotiables may shift or evolve.

For buyers, this could mean looking for homes with dedicated home offices or other features that cater to remote work. For sellers, it may mean upgrading key amenities like outdoor living spaces or smart home technology to appeal to a tech-savvy market. It's also important for both buyers and sellers to keep an open mind and adapt to any changes in the market or their personal needs.
