Admit it, you’ve been kicking around the idea of building a new home for a while now. You may have held off because of the recent recession or just weren’t sure it was a good time to take on such a project. The reality is, now is a great time to build your dream home. Interest rates are still at historic lows and inventory of available homes is also low. That means, there aren’t that many homes available on the market so why not build your dream home now?
With existing homes selling so fast, now is a great time to build a home. Not only does it ensure you get the home you want, you also get to customize it to your specifications.
Now is a Great Time to Build Your Dream Home
No More Competition – When you buy an existing home you’re competing with other families for the same home. In today’s tight market that drives up the price of an existing home simply because there are not enough homes available. Building your own home eliminates the competition which saves you money.
Customization – When you build your own home you get to choose all the selections and really make the home unique. You’re not building a cookie-cutter home, you’re choosing the floor plan, the interior design, the fixtures and are able to add amenities that you want in your home. If you’re planning on aging in place you can install the necessary accessibility features. If you’re a gourmet that could mean you have a gourmet kitchen and service pantry. The sky is the limit with regard to customization.
First Owner – When you build your own home, you’re the first owner. You won’t inherit anyone else’s problems and everything will work correctly when you walk into the house that first day. There won’t be any major repairs for years and those may be covered by a warranty (check with your builder).
Energy Efficient – When you build your own new home you’re going to be using more energy efficient materials than homes built even a few years ago. Additionally you can opt to build into your home energy efficient options like solar to save money and reduce your carbon footprint.
Tech – A home built today is going to be able to handle the current tech on the market. You can’t say that about home built in the 60s or even the 90s. Smart home features are no longer options, they’re considered standard features. Forget about running extension cords everywhere, in your new house you’re covered.
