Of all the home design trends that can shape your effort to buy or sell a home, house size is one of the most inflexible.

However, if you have a larger home, our real estate agents would like to talk with you, as after the tiny home trend, big homes are back in a big way.
Home trends can lean toward greater square footage for a number of reasons, including suburban areas increasing in popularity and technological advances making large homes easier to maintain.
