Helpful Tips When Building a New Home

Posted On January 18, 2016

RESEARCH THE BUILDER BEFORE HIRING

New Construction-Main Photo-HELPFUL TIPS WHEN BUILDING A NEW HOME -

When considering a home-builder, ask around about them from other homeowners whose homes they constructed to get an idea of how they work. Find out whether the builder is punctual, what the quality of their work is like, whether they stayed within the budget and followed through until the job was satisfactorily completed. It is also a good idea to learn whether the builder is prompt with payments to their supply houses and subcontractors. If they delay payments, it is likely that the materials will not arrive on time and the crew quality will also suffer. It is certainly worth conducting a background search to save your new house from any possible liens.

Hire an Attorney

NEW CONSTRUCTION -#1-HIRE AN ATTORNEY

It is always worthwhile to safeguard your home against potential problems, and a lawyer can go over the contract you made with the builder to make sure everything goes smoothly. Spending a small amount in getting an attorney can possibly prevent major losses during the construction of the house. A Realtor® is a great source, however, it is advisable to have your documents reviewed by an attorney instead of relying solely on your Realtor®.

Observe the Neighborhood

NEW CONSTRUCTION-OBSERVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD BEFORE BUILDING A NEW HOME

Research the area where you want to build a home before finalizing it. Find the school district, distance to the nearest schools, thoroughfares and stores, and research for statistics such as the crime rate.

Plan Your Home Wisely

NEW CONSTRUCTION-PHOTO #3-PLAN YOUR HOME WISELY

Consider how your home plan compares with other houses on your street before you start constructing. It isn’t advisable to overbuild as there is no benefit of spending too much on construction. You may not be able to get a good return on investment when you decide to sell the home.

Selecting a Builder Based on Their Bid Is a Bad Idea

A low bid could end up costing you a lot more because of extra costs added on during construction and could also mean substandard construction. High bids are not the only criteria that guarantee high quality, either. So hiring the builder with the lowest or highest bid isn’t recommended.

Hire a Local Builder

Recommendations from residents, friends, and even Realtors® in the area are one of the best ways to find a good builder who has built a sound reputation. Also, hiring builders who are established in the community will rely on local suppliers and crew, which means no time wasted in ordering materials from other places.

Plan Ahead before Building

New-Construction-Photo-#4-Plan-Ahead

Choose products that are long-lasting

Getting all the latest and most expensive features for your home isn’t the best strategy. Choose products and technology that won’t be outdated quickly. Buy things that were released one or two years ago as they will be less costly, easily available and will be free from any flaws that were initially found.

Go for Classic Styles

Avoid building a home that features all the latest trends. It will be quickly outdated as soon as the trend is over and the house’s age will become apparent. Your home will always be in style if you get features that have stood the test of time.
