The National Difference
Thirty years ago a brick and tile home on a quarter acre block was the 'Great Australian Dream'. This trend is changing with many people opting to downsize to more compact and comfortable dwellings on smaller lots.
Looking after a large home on a traditional size lot can require a lot of work and with today's busy WA lifestyles, doesn't leave much time for relaxation.
Traditionally, downsizing was seen as a retirement choice, made after the children left the nest and the family home got too large to manage. More recently, the rising cost of real estate and the desire to use leisure time for socialising rather than maintaining big homes and gardens, has prompted people of all lifestyles to make the switch to a more manageable home.
Benefits of downsizing can include big financial savings in mortgage and insurance payments, as well as running and maintenance costs, allowing you more freedom. Time saved on housework and garden maintenance can be enjoyed elsewhere.
You can also save on the rising cost of utilities and reduce your impact on the environment, as smaller homes use less water and energy. They also require far fewer resources to build and possessions to fill.
