[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope the trend of 5,500 sq ft monstrosities will one day be a thing of the past, and people will start wanting houses that merely meet their needs and have much less of an environmental impact. I'm probably delusional, though.[/quote]

Yes you are [/quote]

No, you aren't delusional above PP.  The trend is to smaller houses.  Consumers are tired of unused rooms which they have to decorate, furnish, heat and cool, maintain, rinse and repeat.  If delusional people want to buy 5,500 sq.ft bless their hearts.[/quote]

Actually  as the economy recovers the home sizes are going back up

"However, as our economy recovers and our collective equity continues to rise (up $1.9 trillion last year), our love affair with over-sized homes has been reignited. According to the National Association of Home Builders, in 2012, new homes grew again, with a median size of 2,384 square feet. Also in 2012, 41 percent of new homes had four or more bedrooms, up from 34 percent three years earlier."
