Buying a new home
Space

Agents love to sell new homes as they are much easier to market and sell. In the beginning stages, buyers may be able to add space or extra storage rooms that an old house would not bring.

No repairs

In some cases, an attic can be turned into a recreation room for your son or daughter. Colours, chandeliers and lighting are all optional changes also. Financing is a piece of cake with brand new construction. There are no termites, so there is no inspection repairs required.

Inspections

Physical inspections are not required as most new homes come with a ten year warranty plan. Buying a new home can be a good idea for most.
Benefits of buying new homes
Building your home is a homeowner’s delight. The thought of a custom built home with a water fountain out front may bring a smile or two. A new home may be a good idea for many or it may be your worst nightmare.

New homes come with a plain floor plan and the only decorations you may see are ones that the builder has rented. There are however things about a new home to consider.

Warranty

Most new homes come with a ten year warranty plan and if you are buying from a reputable company, any flaw is taken in charge. No home is perfect and many homes will need some kind of adjustments and this brings peace of mind.

Up to date

There is no need to replace the carpet or mini-blinds as they are all brand new. This will save you money. Many builders’ homes will give you a choice of colours. Having peace of mind about the plumbing and electric will also help. New homes come with the most up to date features like sky lights, intercom systems and state of the art appliances.
Drawbacks of buying new homes
There are drawbacks about buying a new home and they should be considered before you pass up that adorable home with a white picket fence.

Small rooms

Many new homes, unless they are extremely expensive, have smaller rooms, smaller lots and bathrooms built with ceiling fans and hatches which open opposed to beautiful scenic windows.

Materials

Today’s construction costs have skyrocketed, thus forcing many builders to cut costs by using cheaper materials. Wood, appliances, roofing and even electrical wire may be of lesser quality.

Always keep in mind that money buys quality.
