Here's a blog post on Jetson Green with information on a new survey by NAHB (National Association of Home Builders) and Better Homes & Gardens magazine.

I'll let you read the details, which I think are quite interesting. But the bottom line is that people are interested in smaller, more fuel efficient homes.

That's got me thinking and wondering? Has the current economic turbulence got people thinking differently about what they want in their next home? If you've got a very large home now, do you think you'd like to downsize and is that desire related to our current economic situation? Have your thoughts changed about where you live, city vs. country? Are you craving more land to grow more of your own food?

I'm curious whether people are deciding to make major changes in what they want in housing because of our current situation.

So tell me what you're thinking? How has how you think about your home, about buying or selling real estate, changed as a result of what's happening in the overall economy or in your own little economic corner?
