Smart People Want Dumb Houses: Embrace Simplicity in Home Living

Smart People Want Dumb Houses: Embrace Simplicity in Home Living

Ever feel overwhelmed by the constant barrage of technology in your home? You’re not alone. The trend towards simpler, more soulful living spaces is growing, and it’s resonating with homeowners everywhere.

The Growing Desire for Simplicity

A recent article in Town and Country magazine (April 2024) captures a sentiment many of us share: a desire for fewer remotes, less technology, and more straightforward living. As a realtor, I’ve seen firsthand how high-tech homes, while impressive, often come with a host of complications. From endless repair appointments to systems that leave homeowners feeling stranded, high-tech doesn’t always mean easier.

The High-Tech Headache

Many of the homes I show and sell are equipped with sophisticated systems that either don’t work or the owners simply don’t know how to use. This can lead to a frustrating “hostage situation” with IT departments, customer service, and vendors who are frequently called back to troubleshoot.

The Allure of Less Tech

There’s a growing movement towards “dumb” houses – homes that prioritize functionality and simplicity over flashy tech. While electric shades are a luxury I still love, the demand for homes with less technology and more soul is increasing. Homeowners are tired of being “apped out” and are looking for spaces that offer peace and ease, rather than a need for constant tech support.

If you’re tired of the tech overload and crave a simpler, more soulful living space, let’s find your perfect home together. Contact me today to explore homes that prioritize what truly matters.

Embrace the simplicity and make your home a haven of peace and functionality. Let’s make it happen!
