Savvy homeowners know how to take steps to make their homes stand out from the crowd. Why settle for an ordinary home when you can elevate your house to something extraordinary in your neighborhood? Here are three ways that you can make your home stand out from all the others around it.

Make It A Smart Home

The latest trend in home innovation is to include smart features that contribute to the overall quality of your house. There are several smart features that you can install to make your home stand out. Solar panels offer many benefits that will increase the value of your home over time. Sometimes you can even get features that let you monitor and control the energy usage in your home. Other smart features to consider adding to your home include an energy-saving thermostat, a video doorbell, and smart lighting. These innovative gadgets automate many home processes for a more convenient and comfortable lifestyle.

Give It A Custom Design

One way to make your home stand apart is to infuse it with a custom design that differentiates it from others in your area. Regardless of whether you are building your home or merely undergoing a renovation, using different types of materials and styles will give your residence a unique spin. Think outside the box when choosing your overall style and specific materials for a look that is uniquely yours. If you have a homeowners association, be sure to check with it before making drastic changes to the exterior of your house.

Add A Focal Feature

An easy way to make your home distinctive without breaking the bank is to choose just one focal point to concentrate on and highlight that feature. If you are looking to make the exterior of your home stand out, consider adding a unique tree or water feature to your front yard. If you want to make the interior of your house a special place, you can add an element such as a beautifully crafted fireplace or opt for a creative paint scheme. Don’t be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone when brainstorming ways that you can use a single focal feature to draw attention to your home.

You can make your residence the envy of the neighbors by turning it into the most distinguished house on the block. With a little creativity, it is easy to transform your home into the perfect reflection of your personality and sense of style.

CREATE YOUR SMART HOME BUDGET

*The calculated home technology budget range you will receive will includes parts, labor & accessories (Tax not included)
(a round number is OK)
Numerous structures on the property: Dock, Casita, Guest House, Barn, Gate etc. Check all that apply.
Prewire installation calculations assume you would like your home fully wired for ALL home automation technologies shown throughout the budget calculator, including 'future-ready' wiring. Prewire pricing can vary substantially based on what features you would like in your home. The wiring budget is for low-voltage wiring, not for electrical.
Prewire pricing will vary based on exactly what features you would like in your home. Read this article about the importance of wiring/cabling in today's "wireless" world. Your local Smarter Homes integrator is the best resource for exact prewire pricing. Wiring budget is for low-voltage wiring only, not electrical.
Keep in mind that our modern lifestyle and our home's automation technology systems are extremely reliant on a quality network and Wi-Fi system. Most homes are moving towards enterprise-grade hardware and away from the types of network products you could buy in an office supply store or a consumer computer store. We recommend that all homeowners consider the network and Wi-Fi system to be the most important system and installation within the home.
Higher-quality sound or higher-grade architectural finished speakers can range from $5,000.00 to $10,000.00 PER ROOM
Basic background music system pricing ranges from $1,500.00 to $5,000.00 per room including all equipment, labor, and programming.
Range includes video sources such as AppleTV, a Blu-ray player, satellite receiver, and remotely-locating them for best aesthetics. A basic soundbar is included for better audio.
This is called “video distribution” and reduces the amount of audio/video equipment located at each TV location/room.
A surround sound system creates an immersive sound experience, much like a dedicated home theater room, though in a dual-purpose room such as a Family Room, Master Bedroom, etc. If you would like more than one surround system location, click on the "Add Another Surround System" button below
Typically, homeowners want to see the following areas: front of house, front door, driveway / gate, sides of house, and pool. If you are more concerned about security, you may want to add cameras for the perimeter of your property. Good-quality cameras see about 75 feet of distance on average. The high range of the budget estimate includes higher resolution cameras, better night vision, and longer surveillance recording time.
The installation of a lighting control system reduces wall clutter, allows preset lighting scenes at the push of a button, increases security through programming automation, and adds convenience.
Motorized shades add beauty, convenience, address privacy concerns, and can be used to save energy. If desired, provide your best guess on how many windows/shades you want to motorize. The higher-end of the budget range includes higher-end fabrics, large windows, and dual-roller shades (both sheer and privacy shades on one window).
For example, a house music app, an app to operate your TV, an app for lighting automation, an app for locks, an app for cameras, an app to open close garage doors & gates, etc. Or do you want to control the entire house through a single unified app that controls all the automation systems within the home?
Make your home feel larger by balancing the light between indoor and outdoor areas.
