Escape, Explore, and Relocate: How Remote Work is Redefining Where We Live

IS NOW THE TIME FOR YOUR MOVE? EXPLORING OPPORTUNITIES FOR RELOCATION

Hello, I’m Melissa Shaw of Lewis Realtors. With over two decades of experience, I’ve had the pleasure of helping my clients make successful relocations, allowing them to truly live their best lives. Today, I want to talk about a question many are asking: “Is now the time for a change of scenery?”

 

THE GREAT RELOCATION: WHY NOW?

Are you finding yourself thinking about moving, maybe to be closer to family, or simply wanting that warm sunshine on your face instead of the usual cold? Or perhaps there’s a specific place you’ve dreamed of calling home for years, and now it seems like the stars might finally be aligning. The truth is, circumstances today are opening new doors for many, making it possible to consider relocation like never before.

 

The U.S. Census Bureau reports a significant trend: 20% of people have moved out of state in recent years. Add to that the surge in remote work opportunities, and you have a perfect storm for making that dream move a reality. For context, before the pandemic, only 6% of the workforce was remote. Fast forward to 2023, and that number has skyrocketed to 27 million people working remotely.

 

A FUTURE WITH REMOTE WORK: NEW POSSIBILITIES

By 2025, forecasts indicate that 36.2 million people will be working remotely, with 16% of companies expected to offer remote work options. This shift not only opens up the opportunity to relocate for personal reasons, like family or lifestyle changes, but it also offers the flexibility to choose a home that’s perhaps less expensive or in a location with lower taxes.
