WHAT MEN WANT: HOUSING OPTIONS MOST MEN FOCUS ON
December 30th, 2008 by Excel TeamFile Under: General
Let’s face it, when it comes to buying a home, men and women are often on two different blueprint pages when it comes to features they want. Sure, some features are important no matter who you are, but what do men typically want when it comes to choosing and customizing their modular home?
According to a 2008 study by ZipReality, men and women don’t differ much on certain features, but some differences are worth pointing out:
- Men preferred a home office more than women did (40% to 33%)
- Men placed greater emphasis on recreational spaces, like a home theater (12% to 6%), exercise room (13% to 9%), a swimming pool (22% to 20%), and an outdoor entertainment area (57% to 55%).
- On a surprising aesthetic note, more men than women demanded a home with a view (32% to 27%).
- As expected, men need their garage more than women, with 74% of men saying they wouldn’t purchase a house without a garage, versus 71% of women who made the same claim.
We’ll cover what women want in a future Modular Musings blog entry. Until then, let’s try to find some common ground when it comes to deciding what to do with that new addition off the living room.
