Top 5 Reasons People Prefer Buying a New Home

There are many benefits to building/buying a new home in the real estate market today.  Each person has their own reasoning for it. We have compiled a list to make sure you see the benefits when making your decision.

Top 5 Reasons People Prefer Buying a New Home

1) Choosing the Floor Plan and room layout that suits your needs

You have the ability to pick and place rooms that work best for your lifestyle.  Is a first-floor master important to you?  Do you want an open floor plan concept or do you like super high ceilings?  Whatever your dreams and needs are for your new home, you can get it just like you want it.

2) Energy and cost savings

Everything is new!  This means low maintenance costs for years.  New homes are also much more energy efficient today than they have been in the past.  This will help save money on heating and cooling costs (a side note, talk to your builder about adding a humidifier when you are building, it may be beneficial with how efficient the homes are built).

3) Advanced Technology

All items in your new home are new….  This means wiring and cabling, appliances etc.  In an existing home, it can get costly to upgrade the electrical and add outlets where you want them.  Adding in security systems and surround sound where you want it can add up in renovation costs.  Replacing appliances with newer models that are more efficient and have better features takes money.  All of these factors are figured into the cost of building your new home.

4) Safety

State of the art systems are installed in new homes. The latest circuit breakers, fire and carbon monoxide detectors, and alarm systems have come a long way.  It is comforting knowing you have the best protection available to you to ensure you and your family are safe and protected.

5) That New Home Feel

A new custom or semi-custom home can be the home of your dreams, it has the features and colors you want right when you move it.  New homes offer the latest designs, style, comfort and quality. They provide a care-free lifestyle so that you can enjoy your home, not work on it.
