Why buy a new home?

• Less Maintenance: New homes are built with new materials and appliances, so less maintenance is typically required than with resale homes.
• Safety: They often possess more safety features and fewer health hazards to conform to today's building codes.
• Warranty: Many homebuilders offer warranties in case certain problems develop over time. The home's major appliances and systems also typically include manufacturers' warranties.
• Modern Amenities: They typically feature modern architecture and layout such as great rooms, bigger closets, and additional bathrooms, which often replaces the formal dining and/or living rooms of older homes.
• Efficiency: New homes are usually well-insulated due to better windows, more efficient heating and cooling equipment, and greater use of insulation.
• Easy Exterior Up-Keep: The homes are often made with materials requiring less maintenance, such as aluminum siding, vinyl windows, and pressure-treated wood decks that resist rot and insects.
• Customization: They can be easier to customize than resale homes since you can choose many details ranging from floor plans and paint colors to faucets and light fixtures.
• Technology in Mind: New homes are more apt to be wired with new technologies in mind, such as being pre-wired for multiple phone lines, high-speed Internet connections and extra cable outlets.
