There's also a lot more focus on making homes more energy efficient, which is great because it saves money while also making your home safer during extreme heat or cold.
Those can be very deadly for people, especially if you're like a sick person or you are an elderly person.
from realtor.com, I thought this was really interesting.

As recently as last year, people were more interested in cosmetic features.
This is a pretty fast turnaround in consumer behavior that literally just happened within the last year.
Finally, something I want to call out is that engineers and builders are also looking for ways to make the construction process overall less carbon intensive.
And one of the things that they're doing is looking at ways to use materials other than concrete.
The production of cement and concrete is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions.
And so there's a lot of attention on addressing the problem of climate change from that angle as well.

I mean, I don't think that I fully appreciated that as well.

It's impacting communities all over the country.
