  REALTOR Magazine: 13 home trends stealing spotlight in '22  
 

While buyers are still seeking homes that offer safe, enjoyable shelter, new wish list items are emerging that give houses better design and function.

 

Home design trends that are expected to loom large in 2022 are an evolution of what started during the pandemic when life was disrupted and more homeowners started reevaluating their surroundings. Cases in point: the rise of the home office and backyard pools.

Some hot trends started years earlier, including energy efficiency, conservation of natural resources (especially in fire- and hurricane-ravaged areas), and affordable housing. In addition, each cohort has its own wish list-baby boomers want lower maintenance and millennials want strong broadband connectivity. One caveat: Know that there's no universal agreement about what's in and what's out, even among our pundits.

  NVR members asked to keep account info up to date  
 

Nevada REALTORS® invites its members from across the state to check and update their personal profiles in RAMCO, which members can log into at NevadaRealtors.org. Members can also contact their local associations to provide updated account information.

It is vital that members keep their profile information -- including their current email address -- up to date. Current contact information allows NVR and NAR to reach members with important information regarding billing, Calls to Action and upcoming events. Additionally, without a current email address, members could miss out on valuable information from NVR's weekly newsletter and the Advocate, which focuses on statewide legislative news.

If you have further questions or concerns about keeping your member account updated, you can inquire by email at Info@NVRealtors.org.
