Dad's Need Their Space Too!

Dad’s Need Their Space Too!

There is a new study by Homes & Land that shows most men want their own “space” in their house. Guess who makes the final decision 87% of the time when it comes to purchasing a home? Not hard to figure that out - it’s the opposite sex.

Dad’s have a pretty specific idea what they want and the survey indicated that the list toppers were: an office/study (translated - a place to pile all the hunting and fishing magazines); a media room (translated - Sunday football hang-out); a garage/workshop (translated - a place to hide) and an exercise room (translated that means a room with a refrigerator, vending machines, pizza oven and a set of 2.5# dumbbells).

The study went on to say that 72 percent of Dads claim their own space within the home. Go men! If men had their own way (and they don’t) they would decorate their rooms with personal memorabilia (I have a track ribbon and a 4th place bowling trophy), sports items, vintage cars, tools and photos and animal stuff.

Ok, studies are great and they do give us Dad’s lots of good ideas to dream about. Anyway, I know I won’t be allowed to do any major re-decorating at our cabin any time soon.

It’s beautiful in Hayward and real estate shopping is hot so come on up and see us! Have a wonderful weekend.

Enjoy, Life Is Good!
