As we approach the new year, many of us are thinking about resolutions we’d like to work toward and habits we’d like to build—your clients are no different! Establishing a new habit might seem daunting, but the process can feel much easier in a supportive environment. If your clients are looking to turn over a new leaf and find a new home this year, they may want to move to a neighborhood with community amenities that align with their goals.
We’ve compiled a list of some sought-after features that could help your buyers feel at home while they also build healthy habits. Use these suggestions as a jumping off point for your client’s new home search!
Resolution-friendly community amenities
If your buyers are eager to become more active in the new year, there are plenty of community amenities available to get them walking, swimming, biking, lifting weights and even playing sports. These can include:
Or perhaps your clients have non-fitness habits they are trying to build!
Are they looking to save money and improve their financial wellness? You may want to point them toward communities that offer homes with solar power options, have low (or no) neighborhood fees or even feature floor plans with attached RV garages, which can help them avoid storage fees for their recreational vehicles.
Maybe your buyers are focused instead on enriching their social lives and cultivating new friendships this year. Getting to know their neighbors can be a great way for them to achieve this goal, and many neighborhoods offer ample opportunities and gathering spots for doing so. Community amenities that fall into this category may include a clubhouse offering group activities, a community garden where green thumbs can gather or an onsite amphitheater that puts on exciting shows and events.
