Home Insurance Blog

Crescent Communities, a real estate development company based in Charlotte, NC- released an article this week where they explore the top nine home trends for 2009.  Some of the trends show a definite change of direction in homeowners’ priorities. The Top 9:

• Less Square Footage
• Room for Storage
• Outdoor Living
• Maximum Mobility Design
• Female-Friendly Design
• Green and Healthy Homes
• Smart Homes
• Revolutionized kitchens
• Office Space

For a more detailed explanation, I highly recommend the full article here.

These trends say a great deal about how insurance premiums may be affected in the future. New homes are often rewarded with new home discounts.  New-home owners will also reap home insurance premium benefits from having less sqaure footage.
