But as the workers got more comfortable in the new trend they are considering a permanent change. People now want to spend nine hours working from home in a nice and cozy place with all the facilities available.<\/p>\n<p>This can trigger new business opportunities for real estate companies like Zillow. And a pandemic in 2020 is making all these things possible.<\/p>\n<h2>Home Offices are in High Demand<\/h2>\n<p>Home office spaces are already in higher demand in the U.S. The home office backyards are converted into gyms. Zoom and other virtual meeting platforms changed the traditional meetings. So commute to work can be avoided by all means.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_889\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-889\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-889 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/businessner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Great-Reshuffling-work-with-family.jpg\" alt=\"The great reshuffling and work with family\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businessner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Great-Reshuffling-work-with-family.jpg 960w, https:\/\/businessner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Great-Reshuffling-work-with-family-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/businessner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Great-Reshuffling-work-with-family-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/businessner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Great-Reshuffling-work-with-family-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/businessner.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Great-Reshuffling-work-with-family-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-889\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Workers are willing to join the &#8220;great reshuffling&#8217; movement to spend more time with the family.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Now, experts believe that one thing can shape the future of the real estate market and that is the experience of a sizable and livable space with remote working facilities. They added that spending more time with the family has become a priority for the workers.<\/p>\n<h2>Employers are not interested to Bring Back Employees- Igniting the &#8220;Great Reshuffling&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>The fascinating thing about the recent pandemic is that companies are not interested to force the employees to join the offices. Since the global lockdowns are more relaxed the workers kept working from home due to the fear of contamination.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo me, it sort of takes the edge off of the second shift,\u201d Laura Hamill, chief people officer of Limeade <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2020\/05\/04\/why-many-employees-are-hoping-to-work-from-home-even-after-the-pandemic-is-over.html\">tells CNBC<\/a>. \u201cI can start the dishwasher in the middle of the day or I can put out the chicken to cook for a later meal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The employers are willing to watch until the Covid-19 vaccine hit the market. So employees can expect stay-home instructions at least this year. More excitingly, big names like Zillow and Twitter are promoting an indefinite remote work facility for their employees. This will encourage more companies to follow the new trend.<\/p>\n<h2>Employees moving from expensive cities<\/h2>\n<p>The Covid Pandemic taught workers how large cities can be a deadly option for them. For instance, they are more open to faster disease spread and can be expensive to live in. However, smaller cities with the power of the digital age can be a better alternative.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>\u201cI believe we are at the dawn of a great reshuffling. I\u2019m sure I don\u2019t need to spell it out for you because we are all living it, spending an average of nine hours more per day at home.\u201d\u00a0 &#8211; Barton, CEO of Zillow.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>According to the Zillow CEO, a \u201cdeceleration of migration\u201d is happening in the United States which is important for the future of the real estate market.
