Staying Connected

Now more than ever the need to stay connected remotely with work, friends and family is being tested. This need, for reliable connectivity for homeowners will no doubt now become one of the main factors in buying a new home.

At Rose we continue to adapt the specification of our homes in order to deliver homes that will stand the test of time. Home connectivity is one such example that we have been researching and implementing over the past 2 years with the introduction of Fibre to the Home broadband in all our new homes.
Fibre to the Home broadband (FTTH), is the fastest type of connection in the UK. These ultra-fast speeds enable our homeowners to enjoy the latest in technology and entertainment. The infrastructure allows increasing bandwidth requirements, allowing the ability to perform multiple online tasks simultaneously, including online gaming, web development at home, surfing, emailing, social networking and much more.

The way that our buyers live in their homes has changed with homeworking become more and more popular. Data from the Office for National Statistics shows that the number of people who work remotely has increased by nearly a quarter of a million over a decade. For many of these workers, increased connectivity in personal and work lives have made the transition into remote work a relatively easy one. Faster and more readily available Wi-Fi and broadband, as well as easy-access cloud systems and team collaboration tools mean ‘the office’ can be just about anywhere you take your laptop.

Technology and smart home features are well on their way to becoming the most desirable amenity a new home buyer would wish for. Devices can be useful in any room of the house and cover a range of amenities, from added security to energy efficiency. Much of the technology is easy to upgrade like thermostats, video doorbells, and lighting. Plus, it can all be conveniently controlled with any mobile device. The limitless possibilities of smart home technology coupled with today’s lifestyle is what is making this new trend a must-have for new home buyers.

At Rose we offer our homeowners an array of smart home technology upgrades that can be implemented into their homes.
