What's a top concern for home buyers today? Authenticity.

That's what Heather McCune, director of marketing for Bassenian Lagoni Architects in Park Ridge, Ill., said.

Key for builders is "finding the balance between what buyers want and the price point."

Among the top 10 must-have features for home buyers listed by RISMedia's Steve Kerch are:

• Large kitchens with islands
• Appliances that are energy efficient
• Brick and stone interiors
• Community landscaping
