Have you Considered Adding an Elevator to Your Home?

Whatever the need is for an elevator, you may be surprised to hear that having an elevator or access to an elevator in your residence is becomming a popular trend. When people hear in-home elevators, they tend to think of larger homes, or even mansions. But many people are beginning to realize that it is not as expensive as one might think to have one installed in thier home, it may even add value to your property. I have a few local recommendations for installers if you are interested in finding out if a home elevator is something you wish to pursue. Below, you will also see additional reasons why I feel as a real estate profressional that it could benfit your value or make your home more functional, and most importantly, safer.

Here are 4 of my top reasons on why I feel adding an elevator to your home is beneficial.

1. Age in Place – Whether you are thinking of downsizing or staying in your home, there is certainly a trend leaning towards Aging in Place. It is understandable why you or a parent wants to stay in your or thier home. It is full of memories and even though the memories come with you, home is where the heart is. It is  the place where you feel most comfortable. Adding an elevator or even making the home more accessbile to seniors by installing ramps, bars, etc. helps you age in place by providing a safer enviorment and peace of mind for family members. I can help by visiting your home to give you suggestions on the best improvements  and contractor recommendations to be able to “age in place.”
2. Value – With the increase of popularity in both aging in place or having parents move in, I have seen quite a demand for homes that have elevators. I have listed many homes where I have seen it firsthand add value to the property. Additionally, In-law suites have been in demand for many years. Adding an elevator gives another option instead of reconfiguring your home to add a suite. The elevator gives the freedom to access all levels of the home.
3. Easier Living – Do you have a heavy vacuum cleaner or do a lot of decorating near for holidays? Enough said.
4. Safety – I know I already briefly mentioned safety, but this is definately the key point for having an in-home elevator. Whether you are aging, or have a medical condition or injury that prevents or limits use of stairs, installing an elevator provides a safe way to move around your home. Some elevator companies even install phones with a manual dialer to prioritize saftey duing an emergency or household disater.

In Conclusion

Your home is meant to be a place where you feel most comfortable and protected. It is your castle and adding an elevator may be a good solution whether you want to stay in your home and possibly make your home more valuable.
