First-time home buyers have unique preferences and priorities when it comes to purchasing a home. They often prioritize affordability, location, safety, and accessibility to amenities. Other factors that may influence their choices include energy efficiency, low maintenance costs, and the potential for future appreciation. Understanding these preferences can help sellers and real estate professionals cater to the needs of first-time home buyers effectively.

At the moment, first-time homebuyers want to know if they can actually find a house that they can afford. Many people are paring down that list of essentials just to get a foot in the door. A washer/dryer is non-negotiable, but dual sinks are not. Hardwood floors are a bonus, but engineered flooring is much appreciated, especially when renovating an older home. Ceiling fans can be installed at a later date, as can water filtration systems, outdoor lighting, and security. More important is that there be enough space, a good flow, a decent neighborhood…and that the home is affordable. The bells and whistles can generally be added over time.

FIRST time home buyers want a separate laundry room & walk in pantry, many rating as essential.
Typically, these two items are found in larger homes because when you are building small, it’s difficult enough to fit the needed bedrooms/bathrooms and living areas, let alone extras like walk in pantry and separate laundry room.
Most small houses have a laundry closet and no walk in pantry. This shows the disconnect between what first time home buyers actually want, what they say they want (most say they want a small house with “only the essentials”) and what they can really afford (wanting features typically in larger homes which they can’t afford).

Goes to show you buying homes is emotional and not much logic to it.
