Turn Your Home Into a Smart Home to Sell Faster


Smart Home Technology can help your home be more memorable and more desirable. It's not just Millennials and Gen Ys desiring a home with smart home technology that keeps them secure and connected. Even Baby Boomers look for more convenience in their lives and they know how to use it!


Connecting devices to your smart phone can save energy, money, and time. There are four categories of smart devices:

  1. Utilities - Thermostat, light bulbs, sprinkler, electrical outlet, ceiling fan, stove, washer and dryer, powered window shades, etc.

  2. Safety - Wireless key entry, doorbell, garage door, outdoor lighting, etc.

  3. Security - Burglar alarm, smoke alarm, carbon monoxide detector, or any sensor that triggers a call for emergency assistance.

  4. Audio / Visual - Personal assistant such as Alexa or Siri, TVs, music, etc.


With today’s technology available to consumers, it can be pretty easy and inexpensive to get started. Setting your home up with Smart Home devices can be a great marketing tool, and make your home memorable, without too much out of pocket.


A trip to a big box home improvement store such as Lowe's or Home Depot can be a great start. They have a plethora of Smart Home devices at reasonable prices that can get you started. If you are already invested into the Alexa series, Amazon too has many compativle devices at affordable prices.
