Five Pieces of Tech to Make Your Home Smarter

New home automation technologies pop up each year. Some technologies can be a great selling point when listing your Lake of the Ozarks home for sale. Not only that, but they can make your life a little easier when you add them to your new home. Here are five pieces of currently trending tech that can make your home a little smarter:


1. Video Doorbells
See who is at your door, whether you're inside or halfway around the globe. In addition to cameras, these doorbells offer two-way communication, so you can tell that deliveryman to leave your package by the door.

2. Smart Speakers
These Wi-Fi-enabled speakers not only let you queue up your favorite jams on demand, but many also come with smart assistants, like Amazon's Alexa, Google's Assistant or Apple's Siri.

3. Smart Lighting
Thanks to special light bulbs and switches, you can turn lamps, overhead fixtures or exterior lights on with a simple voice command.

4. Smart Fridges
Ever been to the grocery store and forgotten if you needed eggs? With smart refrigerators, you can get a virtual peek inside your fridge from anywhere, so you'll always know exactly what you have on hand.

5. Smart Security
Instead of outsourcing your home's security, smart security systems allow you to take the DIY route with sleek sensors, battery backup systems and command centers that allow you to monitor your home 24/7 wherever you are.

What are some other home automation technologies that you consider a must have? Besides tech upgrades, there are many other ways you can make your home enticing for buyers. When you're looking to buy, sell or invest in real estate, you need an agent who will be by your side every step of the way. Call Team Andy Gibson today for a personalized consultation!
