Incorporating Activity Centers/Zones into
Effi cient Kitchen Floor Plans:
Cooking Typically you think of the stove or cooktop
as where you cook – but don’t forget about your
microwave or built-in oven. Plan landing spaces for
hot dishes coming out of each area. As with most parts
of your kitchen, storage is critical to function. Create
space for utensils, spices, pots, pans, bakeware,
cooling racks, and water to be easily accessible. You
don’t want to walk 10 steps every time you need
something. Your cooking area should also have as
much space left and right as the cook top. Think of how
you cook. Is a cookbook out? Measuring cups? Spatula
that you just stirred with? Towel laying on the counter to
clean up minor spills? These types of things rapidly eat
up counter space if they don’t have convenient homes.
Cleanup Typically people think of clean up as the area
around the sink – which like the cooktop should have as
much left/right area. But consider where your garbage
can will be or do you have space for recycling bins and
trash cans, household cleaning items and a broom or
mop. You don’t want to plan your dream kitchen only to
forget the trash can.
a subsidiary of the National
Association of Realtors®,
reached a major milestone
for user engagement on the real estate
data and analytics platform.
Overall engagement among NAR
members for the month of March 2018
soared to a record 178,000 - a notable
16 percent increase from March 2017.
As one of the platform’s key performance
indicators, RPR measures usage
among several categories, from the
number of individual sessions and
new website visitors to account creations
and webinar registrations.
Among those categories, first quarter
2018 web sessions topped 3.7 million,
a 27.7 percent increase year over
year. RPR webinars witnessed a 135
percent increase in registrations; the
average attendance per webinar increased
by 158 percent. The number
of newly created accounts in the first
quarter also tipped the scales with
more than 18,000 Realtors® registering
for the platform.
RPR Mobile™, the flagship of the
platform’s “anytime, anywhere” offerings,
also experienced significant
growth in the first quarter of 2018
with app downloads exceeding
402,000 by Realtors® nationwide. The
record numbers are reflective of Realtors
®’ increasing use of the platform’s
high-value market data and reports to
better serve clients and customers.
“I make it my business to help
buyers make indisputable offers,
lead sellers to realistic list prices, and
allow for everyone I represent to benefit
from the transaction,” says Jickson
Chacko, a Realtor® with HomeSmart
Realty Group in Denver, Colorado.
“And I couldn’t do it without RPR.”
RPR Chief Operating Officer Jeff
Young echoed Chacko’s sentiment.
“We’re delighted by the upsurge in
activity among our members,” Young
said. “There’s a rising tide among
Realtors® who want to know more
about how RPR can help build their
businesses. We believe 2018 will be a
pivotal year for RPR’s success.”
