Upgrading Your Home with Modern Features and Smart Technology

Date:

Bringing your home into the modern era is exciting. Especially with home trends moving at the same pace as technological advancements, making these upgrades is universally accessible. Technology can be intimidating but as it becomes more and more common, it also becomes more user friendly. Home projects ranging from small to large scale can all be improved with the inclusion of these gadgets and products. 

As home renovations also become more and more trendy, real estate professionals are highlighting how to increase the value of your home with upgrades to its function. While cosmetic renovations can also increase value, and make homes aesthetically pleasing for current and future owners, upgrades to the function of the home are what is going to make yours stand out in a competitive market, as well as add livability for you and your family now if you do not have plans to sell. 

Function Focused Upgrades

Regardless if you are building new or embarking on a renovation of your current home, you are going to want to invest the money in the updates that have a healthy return on investment. A home elevator system can be a great example of an inclusion that will stand the test of time and does not discriminate when it comes to what type of person this can benefit. The cost of home elevators can depend on not only the exact model that you pick, but the circumstances that surround the installation. Keeping that in mind, consider models that are as up to date as possible from a technology standpoint. With a project and investment of this scale it makes the most financial sense to make decisions that reflect modernity. Upgrading a product of this size is less of an option once initially installed in a home so starting your home elevator project with the most recent options available and keeping it as up to date as possible is preferable. 

Since the cost of home elevators can be significant, research can be the best way to try and temper the sting of the cost. Understanding what it will take to make this addition a reality structurally, will help manage your expectations of the associated costs. Comparing style types, installation companies, and looking into the zoning and permit requirements of your hometown can all be done on your own. Doing so will also help you to determine a timeline for this project based off your plans for paying for it. 

Keep it Simple

There are also options that can lend themselves to a tech savvy home that do not require such a large investment and project. Virtual assistants are highly common these days, and so common in fact you would be hard pressed to find a home without one.  The great thing about this product is that it can be linked to so many other things inside your home to bring your technology up to speed. Personal assistants can control your lighting, thermostat, appliances, and even your grill when used to their full potential. Being able to be handsfree and use voice commands to help you navigate your home is so freeing and certainly lends itself to a technologically advanced home set up. 

The simple thing about this is that set up for these features is one and done. Once you have synced up your personal assistant to the other compatible devices in your home, then you can use them consistently over time with ease. Capabilities can be managed through your other devices as well which means that use can be shared between the different people that live in the smart home. The organizational benefits of personal assistants also make this technology upgrade desirable. Streamlining the day to day functions and demands of your household decreases stress and creates more personal time to dedicate to activities that feel less chore-like. 

Home Protection

Devices like doorbells with cameras and products that lock and unlock your home via your smartphone have blazed the trail for increasing home security. The added layer of protection that these products offer is certainly in line with the advancement of technology. Compared to traditional home security systems, these modern options are also more cost efficient since they have more features. Once installed, these cameras can be synced to your smartphone or other personal devices so that any activity and motion can be easily monitored instantly. The visual aspect is where this advancement gains an edge on simply motion detection or an alarm when a window is broken, or a lock is tampered with. There is a peace of mind that comes along with being able to immediately know if your cameras were triggered because of a middle of the night squirrel, or a true threat to your safety.
