Electric Cars is Now a House Accessory


The improvement in battery technology is affecting every industry in the world, and the real estate industry is no exception. Though they are many accessories that rely on this new battery technology, we are only going to cover one sector, and that is cars as it now relates directly to real estate. Before the only relation of vehicles to real estate was some homes were made with a single garage. When you started to get into two, three, four, or more garages then you were heading towards luxury houses. As we progress into every New Year, the realization that the average house standard will require an electric charging station to charge these new battery-powered cars is inevitable.

New house builders and old house renovators will be wise to start offering electric charging stations and solar shingles with new built. People who are into rehabbing old houses will also make their rehab more in demand by adding an electric charging station to charge these electric cars. Solar shingles are also a great asset to offset the long-run electricity cost to charge these electric vehicles.

Most people care about two essential things, and that is a place to live and transportation. With the invention of these electric cars, it is going to be hard to separate a house from a car because now they both will be connected. As the demand grows for electric vehicles, so will the market will develop for homes that have this charging station in place to charge these electric cars.

The current top nine car manufacturers to influence the change in the real estate industry with these electric vehicles are Tesla, Jaguar, Audi, BMW, Nissan, Chevrolet, Ford Mustang, Volkswagen, and Kia.

Downsizing for Retirement

“I met my girlfriend in college who later became my wife. After we both graduated from college and pursue our careers we thought of having kids. After about five years we were able to save enough money to make a down payment for the house of our dreams. We got a single-family colonial 5 bedroom house. At the time we wanted a house big enough that we could raise a family. Our kids are all grown now and have started their own families. We do not see them much other than sometimes on Christmas. Though we have created lasting memories in the house it is feeling too big to manage and maintain. Both my wife and I have both been retired for a few years and are on limited retirement benefits. I have arthritis in my knee and it is perplexing to climb the steps every day to go up to my bedroom that often time I sleep on the sofa in the family room. When I was younger it was easier to do things around the house but climbing ladders, mowing the lawn, snow removal, etc., is too much at my age. The ...

How to get the Max House Value

After living in your house for years, you have come to the point where you desire to sell your home. During those years you had it painted the way you wanted and made your dream home come through. Now is time to pack your dreams and leave the house for someone else to create their dream home.  In the attic and the garage, you accumulated a lot of stuff over time, and at that time you bought them you thought it was a good idea, but there is no room to walk in those areas. You always thought one day you might need it, and even though you never used them, you could not come to grips with getting rid of them. You wonder if anyone will notice the water stain on the ceiling that seems to spread a little more than it did a few months ago, but since there was no need for a bucket, you avoid spending money to investigate what causes it because you fear the expense of knowing.  Though this scenario is fictional, it may be all too familiar, and most selling agents have confronted similar...

How Home Value Works

The real estate market in the United States is on its way up again. You can see prices rising in most cities. Real estate is similar to the stock market; stock that rises can fall as well. As opposed to the Stock Market, the best thing with real estate is that if the real estate market crashes, you have something tangible to hold onto rather than valueless pieces of paper.  The main thing you should be mindful of in real estate is to know the value of your real estate at all times. Like the stock market, many things can influence the rise and fall in the market value of real estate. Real estate can rise when the demographics changes from a predominantly low-income renter’s occupied property to owner’s occupied property. It also has to do with the income bracket of the owners. Frequently some may think it is the real estate property and the improvements that add real estate value to the real estate property, which is not entirely true.  The most significant influence on...
