Creature comforts are top-of-mind for buyers in Boise, Idaho, where Group One Sotheby’s International Realty agent Deborah Phantana says heated floors are trending.
“I have seen heated floors popping up more and more in our market,” Phantana told Inman. “In the last month, I’ve seen — maybe because I’m working with more luxury buyers at this point, everyone I’m working with is at $1 million or higher — and we’re seeing heated floors become a standard feature.”

One of Phantana’s luxury clients is also building out an oversized, heated
RV garage so they can “work on and maintain their toys throughout the winter.”
“I do think that people are putting additional creature comforts into their homes at this point because of what we’ve experienced through 2020,” Phantana added. “It’s making that sense of home and that use of space even that much more important. So doing those improvements at home has definitely come to a higher level of relevance.”
