Interested in New Construction

 REVIEW

PROS

• It’s NEW! Everything is brand new and gorgeous. All your important systems are new too (HVAC, Plumbing, Electric, Roof, etc..) so there shouldn’t be a ton of maintenance.

• Warranties- all of the appliances in your home should be covered by warranties for several years.

• Most New Construction homes can be customized to some degree, so you can pick out some of the features and finishes you want.

• Newer homes are usually more energy efficient, which is great for the environment AND your wallet!

CONS

• New neighborhoods typically have smaller home lots than established neighborhoods. Do you need a big yard?

• If your neighborhood is still being built as you move in, be prepared for construction noise and debris (nails, etc.)

• Your landscaping will be brand new, and may require a little patience and TLC.

• Builder purchase contracts can be strict and one-sided (e.i deposit requirements).

• Weather may delay the construction of your new home, pushing back your move in date.

• It takes time to build new construction and waiting period.
