As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

According to a recent smart-home survey (PDF), many homebuyers want smart-home tech upgrades included in the deal: 63% want smart keyless entry locks, and 66% want smart home security cameras. Good news, these are relatively inexpensive and can be installed by the homeowner prior to listing. REALTOR®, Amber Miller with Main Street Realty breaks down a few smart home ideas in this blog. #ad

1- Electronic Keyless Entry

Make upgrades to your home that make life more convenient and secure. A simple upgrade that homeowners can do right away, would be to install an electronic keyless entry lock. I personally have this one, https://amzn.to/3QWXVUD on my home. Keyless entry locks can be installed with a screwdriver and no hard wiring. They require a 9volt battery and the expected battery life is two years. Amazon offers several affordable options, this lock https://amzn.to/3D07M6e is under $35.

2- Ring Security Cameras

Ring doorbell cameras are very popular since they are affordable and high quality. There are several cameras to choose from including wired and battery options. Ring offers a doorbell camera, seen here https://amzn.to/3GSox4q. This option allows homeowners to detect motion at their door, communicate with delivery personnel, and save recordings up to 180days. My personal favorite is the flood light camera, https://amzn.to/3WnZITE. I like that I can set the sensitivity of the alarm, it can be set to record if any motion is detected, OR set to only record if a car, or a person activates the sensor.

3- Smart Thermostat

Another smart upgrade is the Amazon Smart Thermostat, https://amzn.to/3GREFDn . Under $100 and is an easy way to switch from a traditional thermostat and help reduce energy usage.

Buyers are looking for Smart Home upgrades. Help your property stand out by making upgrades that you can install yourself at a reasonable price.
