Home Office Space Could Make The Sale

A consumer research firm recently learned that over 75% of people would use extra bedroom space as an office in their next home, beating out guest rooms and multipurpose rooms. This shouldn't be that surprising, especially with the increase in telecommuting and self-employment opportunities, and the recent increase of stay-at-home moms. Plus, parents see a centralized work space where they can keep an eye on homework progress as an increasingly important feature.

Remember, if you do work from home you may be able to deduct the cost of your home office on your taxes as well -- the only room in the home that can pay you back before you sell!
