How Are you Advertising to Remote Workers

[Erin Spradlin]

I've been advising my clients in Denver and Colorado Springs to pay attention to the remote work trend. I am doing so because I believe remote workers will be the next major tenant or buyer pool, and so we need to be mindful of what they want. Here are a few ideas I've had for my clients that are landlords in Colorado or people just trying to sell locally in Colorado Springs or Denver.

1. Convert unused media rooms into work spaces
2. Remote workers are putting a premium on office spaces; the focus right now on usable work space in the house is nearly as important as kitchens
3. A good home office will have strong wifi, noise proofing and a lock
4. Sellers and landlords should consider moving bedrooms into the basement- this gives the feel of ending your day. It's dark, cold and isolated from the rest of the house in the basement, which is good for sleeping but not good for working. When you are working during the day, you don't want to feel dark, isolated and cold. Bring the offices upstairs. 

Any thoughts on this?
