There are many considerations when searching for the right home for you and your family – like choosing between a shiny new construction or a charming pre-owned home. Here are just a few (of many!) advantages of choosing to buy new construction.
New Home Warranty
New construction homes – and everything that comes in them – often have new home warranties. You can buy your home with confidence knowing your homebuilder will cover the cost of any issues during the warranty period. A new construction home warranty gives you one less thing to worry about during the homebuying process!
Personalization
The sky is the limit when you choose to build a new construction home! Skip the legwork of an existing home’s renovation by tailoring your new home from the ground up. You can customize your home to perfectly fit your family’s needs by choosing your lot, home elevation and personalized floor plan. With a clean slate, you can also choose from various countertops, cabinet finishes, fixtures and even add in some smart home upgrades! With these personalized touches, it will truly feel like home from the moment you walk in.
Innovative Technology
With a new construction home, you can trust that your home was built with the latest advances in construction materials and building practices. You won’t have to worry about missing or dated appliances, as new construction homes often come with brand new, energy-efficient appliances already installed. Many new construction homes are required to meet energy standards and requirements, leading to reduced utility bills every month.
Great Communities
When you purchase a new construction home, you get more than just a house. You also gain a master-planned Community with amenities and features you can’t always get in a pre-owned home. In a new community, you can usually find amenities like a community pool, snack bars, tennis courts, clubhouses, playgrounds and more! With several locations in some of the most desirable areas in the country, you can find the perfect new construction Community near you.
If you’re 55 or older, there are many new construction Communities made just for active adults! These communities allow you to explore new passions and activities so that you can live life to the fullest. Whether it’s outdoor activities like walking, swimming, biking or tennis, or indoor hobbies like crafting, gardening or painting, you can be sure to make the most out of your active adult Community!
Fewer Surprises
One the most significant financial benefits to buying a new construction home is the low maintenance costs. With less to worry about and fewer unexpected expenses after move-in, you can spend time enjoying your new home and exploring your new Community rather than making repairs and updates to an existing home.
