\"Remote<\/p>\n

A lot has changed over the past year. For many people, the rise in remote work influenced what they\u2019re looking for in a home and created a greater appetite for a dedicated home office. Some professionals took advantage<\/a> of the situation and purchased a bigger home. Other people thought working from home would be temporary, so they chose to get creative<\/a> and make the space they already had work for them. But recent headlines indicate working from home isn\u2019t a passing fad.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re still longing for a dedicated home office, now may be <\/strong>the time<\/strong><\/a> to find the home that addresses your evolving needs. <\/strong>More and more companies are delaying<\/a> their plans to return to the office \u2013 others are deciding to remain fully remote permanently. According to economists from Goldman Sachs<\/em> in a recent article from CNN<\/em><\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cJob ads increasingly offer remote work and surveys indicate that both workers and employers expect work from home to remain much more common than before the pandemic<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Other experts agree. A survey<\/a> conducted by Upwork<\/em> of 1,000 hiring managers found that due to the pandemic, companies were planning more remote work now and in the years to come. Upwork<\/em> elaborates:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe number of remote workers in the next five years is expected to be nearly double what it was before COVID-19: By 2025, 36.2 million Americans will be remote, an increase of 16.8 million people from pre-pandemic rates<\/strong>.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The charts below<\/a> break down their findings and compare pre- and post-pandemic percentages.\"Remote<\/a><\/p>\n

How Does This Impact Homeowners?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If you own your home<\/a>, it\u2019s important to realize that continued remote work may give you opportunities you didn\u2019t realize you had. Since you don\u2019t need to be tied to a specific area for your job, you have more flexibility when it comes to where you can live.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re one of the nearly 23% of workers who will remain 100% remote:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n

You have the option to move to a lower cost-of-living area or to the location of your dreams. If you search for a home in a more affordable area, you\u2019ll be able to get more home for your money, freeing up more options for your dedicated office space and additional breathing room.<\/p>\n

You could also move to a location where you\u2019ve always wanted to live \u2013 somewhere near the beach, the mountains, or simply a market that features the kind of weather and community amenities you\u2019re looking for. Without your job tying you to a specific location, you\u2019re bound to find your ideal spot.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re one of the almost 15% of individuals who will have a partially remote or hybrid schedule:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Relocating within your local area to a home that\u2019s further away from your office could be a great choice. Since you won\u2019t be going in to work every day, a slightly longer commute from a more suburban or rural neighborhood may be a worthy trade-off for a home with more features, space, or comforts.<\/p>\n

Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If ongoing remote work is changing what you need in a home, let\u2019s connect to find one that delivers on your new wish list.<\/p>\n
