Smart Home Technology Thoughts by your Roseville Realtor®
Smart home technology helps your home stand out from the competition and is memborable. It's not only 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:
Utilities - Thermostat, light bulbs, sprinkler, electrical outlet, ceiling fan, stove, washer and dryer, powered window shades, etc.
Safety - Wireless key entry, doorbell, garage door, outdoor lighting, etc.
Security - Burglar alarm, smoke alarm, carbon monoxide detector, or any sensor that triggers a call for emergency assistance.
Audio / Visual - Personal assistant such as Alexa or Siri, TVs, music, etc.
Smart home technology is very affordable now, especially if you go to the big box home improvement stores such as Lowes or Home Depot. If you are already invested in the Alexa series from Amazon, they too have a plethora of compatible devices that you can purchase at a very reasonable price to get started. My personal fav is the garage door opener!
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.
