At the recent International Builders Show–held in Las Vegas–people saw some trends in homes that were popular across the board. Paul Cardis, CEO of Avid Ratings, lists the Top 10 Trends seen at this year’s show:
1. Large kitchens with islands
2. Energy efficiency, including energy-efficient appliances, super insulation, and high-efficiency windows.
3. Home offices
4. Main-floor master suite
5. Outdoor living space
6. Ceiling fans
7. Soaking tub in the master suite and/or an oversize shower with a seating area
8. Stone and brick exteriors rather than stucco or vinyl
9. Community walking paths and playgrounds
10. Two-car garages, but three-car garages are even more desirable
