The world of real estate often uses the term “luxury,” but what lies behind it? What separates a luxury property from everything else? This blog post will explore the luxury property world and shed some light on what truly sets these homes apart.
1. Location, Location, Location
The key to luxury real estate is location, with properties in prestigious neighborhoods offering breathtaking views, outstanding amenities, and easy access to conveniences such as schools, shopping centers, and restaurants.
2. High-End Finishes and Features
Upscale residential properties are often far from traditional houses. In particular, kitchens and bathrooms tend to be cutting-edge. They often have bespoke designs, use premium materials, and contain the finest appliances. And, of course, these properties often feature very “special” (arguably, much better) amenities: plenty of technology that makes life much more accessible and considerably less stressful—things like private elevators and breathtaking home theaters.
3. Exclusive Amenities
Many top-dollar listings go beyond high-end interiors to offer potential buyers and investors exclusive companion amenities like a private pool or an exercise facility. Some even offer a concierge service to seemingly magically fulfill the residents’ every wish or request, and gated security represents an elegant lifestyle. Affluent buyers expect to see these features and the properties that have them up their value ante.
4. Privacy and Security
Luxury real estate has to be private and secure. Wealthy individuals don’t want their home or financial information to be available to anyone, and rightly so. To help ensure the privacy and security of these homes and communities, a wide array of people, from developers and contractors to sales agents and lenders, all work together to keep this real estate market segment humming.
5. Exceptional Views
Lastly, luxury properties often have distinguishing views. Whether it’s a visible expanse of undulating, pastoral scenery or the glittering cityscape of a vibrant metropolis, breathtaking vistas give a property a certain romance in the hearts and minds of prospective buyers, who are often willing to pay a premium for the experience of living in such a place.
