Annual US Homeowner Project Activity Tracker
Explore the evolving landscape of home improvement through HIRI’s Annual Homeowner Project Activity Tracker. This in-depth report provides a comprehensive view of homeowners’ motivations, recent project activity, and future renovation plans. Unlike our quarterly report that highlights overall trends, this annual tracker dives deeper into what’s driving project decisions, where purchases are being made, and how consumer behavior is shifting across categories and home areas.
Objectives
Gain insight into homeowners’ attitudes and motivations driving home improvement initiatives.
Investigate recent home improvement activities conducted within the last 90 days.
Analyze evolving channel behavior over time in home improvement practices.
Delve into research patterns and influential factors shaping project and product purchasing decisions.
Understand the reasons why homeowners did not undertake home improvement activities in the last 90 days
Anticipate future home improvement endeavors by understanding homeowners’ project intentions.
