The Smart Home - R We Really That Outdated?

You walk into your house, the door is connected to the T.V., the dishwasher can be run by your phone. You can have a discussion via text with your waterbed.

What does it all spell out? A smart home!

R developers and rehabbers really that far behind the times? Do people looking to buy or even rent, really want all these options?

How much does it add to the cost of building or remodeling? Then, how much do you pad the price to sell or rent?

The bottom line here is, we are moving into a new generation of better homes and more comfortable surroundings.  There will be and is a price to pay. Soon many things in the home will be outdated and antiquated.

Long gone will be the days, you manually opened your window in the morning to bring in fresh air - it will be set on a timer, much like your instant coffer maker is set today.

Are we really ready for this? Is the market strong in this arena? Who are the big players here, builders, developers or rehabbers?

Just a few thoughts to ponder! Any views and opinions are warmly welcome and taken! Have Fun!
