With mortgage rates at an all-time low, this year has seen a surge of home buying. According to the Washington Post, sales of previously owned homes grew a record-setting 20.7 percent in June and sales of new homes increased by 13.8 percent. Consumers that are able are either moving into their first home, after being cramped in an apartment during quarantine, upgrading their home or moving out of the city to the more spacious countryside or suburbs. Whatever the reason, the increase in house sales has led to an increase in new homeowners and the need for amazing housewarming gifts.

Though housewarming parties may be postponed or hosted over Zoom, due to social distancing, friends and family can still give their well wishes by dropping off or mailing a great housewarming gift. These picks make perfect housewarming presents for any new homeowner.
