Most Overhyped Home Feature? Let’s Be Honest…

Most Overhyped Home Feature? Let’s Be Honest…

Let’s talk about the most overhyped home features out there.

You know the ones — the things everyone seems to ooh and ahh over in listings, but in real life? Not exactly life-changing.

For me, it’s smart appliances. I don’t need a Wi-Fi connection to microwave popcorn or ask Alexa how many seconds it takes to boil an egg. Simpler is sometimes better.

Overhyped smart home features like touchscreen appliances in a modern kitchen

So what’s your pick for the most overrated feature?

👉 Is it the showy but impractical waterfall kitchen island?
👉 The massive soaking tub you’ve used twice?
👉 The open shelving that only looks good if you never actually cook?

In the Auburn and Opelika real estate market, buyers are savvier than ever — but even the trendiest homes can’t hide a bad layout or lack of functionality.

Thinking about buying or selling a home in Auburn or Opelika? Don’t get distracted by the flash. Work with a realtor who can help you spot what actually adds value (and what’s just hype). I’ll guide you through every step — no apps required.
