Home Fads that are Falling out of Style

An article from Realtor magazine explains features that are falling out of style in Las Vegas. Ohio styles follow Las Vegas, right? Here are six features decreasing in popularity:

1. fireplaces: gas fireplaces can be expensive and wood-burning ones aren't very energy-efficient
2. carpet: replaced by hardwood floors
3. living room: this formal room hasn't been missed by buyers
4. desks in the kitchen: tend to be too small and lead to clutter
5. skylights: just disappearing
6. upscale kitchens: granite is being replaced by affordable, low-maintenance laminate
