I Want to Make My House a Home

After 911 we say many people somewhat checking out of society and retreating to their houses and spending more time there. We say an increase in new housing starts and a rapid and unprecedented growth in first time car buyers. We saw many chose to move to suburbs which grew into cities in their own right, brand new cities as business and infrastructure followed.

We saw purchases such as items for the home increase. In the last few years one of the best retail sectors to be in was home entertainment systems, computers and barbeques. We also say increase in things like Gazebos, swing sets for kids and pop up pools for the back yard. One interesting major home purchase was a garden tractor or ride on mower. The sales of garden tractors and ride on mowers skyrocketed to over 2000% over a three-year period.

Some say that it takes a family to make a House a Home. And indeed the family was brought back together and became a tighter nit group. Some went back to get closer with their religion and Bible sales also increased to almost catch the number of phone books in the United States. Many people bought a new car to get into town having moved slightly away from the hustle and bustle.

How has your life changed? What have you done lately to make you house a home, a place for the whole family; a place you feel safe and secure, with all the amenities you need to make you happy? If you want to make your house a home, then you need to truly understand what is important to your in your life and make it available right here at home? Think on this.
