Reasons to Build A New Home Instead of Buying A Used Home

Reasons to Build A New Home Instead of Buying A Used Home - Reasons to Build 1. Favorable Pricing. The competition among homebuilders makes new homes less likely to be over priced. New homes are easy to compare with other new homes in the market equating value to value. The homes are the same age and options are declared up front with a price breakdown for comparative shopping.

 2. New Home Warranty. New Homebuyers are assured of at least a one-year warranty on the home itself plus at least five years on major appliances. We stand behind our work and we will be here for you if you need us.

3. Modern Appliances. Appliance manufacturers introduce new models every year and Townsend Homes is able to offer the latest state-of-the-art equipment at the time of completing a new home. And because we buy appliances for all of our new homes, our purchasing power can reduce the cost to you.

4. Floor Plan Opportunities. Townsend Homes offers a variety of functional floor plans to fit your lifestyle. Our floor plans can be customized to fit the needs of your family. Rooms can be added, enlarged, moved or eliminated. If you find a front elevation that you like, it is possible to customize one of our plans to your liking.
 
5. Energy Efficient and Built With the Latest Materials. Low maintenance is one of the most important features of new homes being built today. New technology in building materials has made the homes of today virtually mantenance-free, especially on the exterior. No longer does a homeowner have to worry about painting every 3-5 years. Because we are using the latest technology, your new home also meets stricter energy codes than older homes. This results in savings for you on energy bills. All man-made products have an expected life span. Daily use, weather, and quality of care play a role in longevity. Building a new home eases the concern of “How long before it breaks down?”

6. The Choices Are Yours. With a new home, it is possible for you to be decorator before you move in. A choice of carpet, wall coverings, paint color, lighting fixtures, etc. enables you to live with your personal selections and not be restricted by the taste of the previous owners.

7. Take Advantage Of Maximum Appreciation Potential. Homes appreciate with time. But with a new home, located in a desirable area, increases even more and will have greater resale appeal if you ever decide to sell. And everything you add to it, from landscaping to the deck in the backyard, increases your equity and the value of your investment. Lenders also prefer to finance new home by reputable builders. They know that a well-built new home is a better risk than an older home.

8. A New Home Has No Skeletons In The Closets. Is there asbestos hiding in the ceiling? Will that strange odor go away with a good cleaning? How well was the home built in the first place? These are all questions you can put to rest when you build your new home with Townsend Homes.

9. You Won’t have to Update or Redesign Your New Home. The nicest thing about approving the mortgage papers for your new home is that you know you won’t be shopping for a remodeling loan a few years later. Everything you want can be built-in from the beginning and there are no old appliances to modernize or dated carpet colors to eliminate. You have the best and latest in style and quality-and the beauty of everything being brand new!

10. This Will Be The Biggest Investment of Your Life. A home is usually the largest investment that a family makes. Why take a chance with any other builder or with someone else’s home? Even if you don’t plan to stay in a home forever, investing in a quality builder like Townsend Homes and including state-of-the-art features make your home a smart investment that will serve you for years to come.
