9 items homebuyers desire in 2011

Today I read an interesting article on 9 items that homebuyers in the US want. Granted, their housing market is a lot worse than ours but some of the items mentioned were outlandish. In addition to getting a rock bottom price, they want a house that does not need renovations , incentives like gift cards , less formal homes BUT they want a touch of luxury. Wouldn't a formal home be luxurious?
If you are looking for a bargain, expect to get less than you would get if you paid full price. I have heard of bank owned homes with the appliances, copper piping and light fixtures removed and sold by the previous homeowners.
Never was the term "Buyer beware" more appropriate than it is today in the US market.
