Task #1. Find an example of a Real Estate Project that
is a new trend.
Homes within homes
Almost one-third of
American adults today are "doubled up," or living in the same
household with another adult generation, the U.S. Census Bureau says. Those
adults could be "boomerang" kids who have come back home to live
after college, or aging parents who moved in with adult children.
Homebuilders are
starting to respond to this trend. "We're seeing a huge growth in floor
plans that include dual master suites." Lennar Homes has
introduced its NextGen home in several areas of the country. "It really is
a home within a home," says Alan Jones, Arizona division president for
Lennar. Imagine a home that contains a separate apartment with its own sleeping
area, kitchenette, bathroom and perhaps even garage. A door connects it to the
rest of the house, Jones says. "This allows them to come back and live
with you, but not on top of you." At other stages of life, the apartment
can serve other uses, Jones says.
