What does the Baby Boomer generation look for in a home?  Baby Boomers are your mid 50's - mid 60's age group who are approaching retirement. They have distinctly different preferences than the Gen X and Gen Y generation.

Baby Boomers no longer need a home to accommodate children, but they still have distinct partialities in what they want in a home. Think about what might be important features for Baby Boomers, then read on to see what a majority of the buyers in this age group prefer.
