1. You can get exactly what you want
No more going through existing homes and having to “settle” for something different than your dream home. When you build a new home you can get exactly what you have always wanted and deserved, on the perfect lot for your family.
2. Lifestyle
Today’s new home plans reflect what today’s home buyer wants: larger kitchens for family gatherings, bigger closets, ample storage space, and more bathrooms. Consumers are seeking greater ceiling heights, more – and bigger – closets, walk-in showers with multiple heads, three-car garages, and outdoor entertainment spaces with fireplaces and grills.
3. Decorate the house to your taste
Have you ever gone into an existing home and realized it would need to be completely redecorated before you could live in it? Don’t settle for colors you don’t like and don’t go with your furnishings, when you can buy a new house and decorate it the way you want. Elite provides a professional decorator with 30 years experience to work with our homeowners. We even have a brand new, state of the art, design center to make decorating your new home easy.
4. Availability of new technology
In most existing homes technology is virtually non-existent. You are lucky to have a cable outlet in one room. We use CAT 5 wiring in all our new homes. You are able to decide the location of all your cable outlets. You can pre-wire for a satellite dish, home computers and your home office. We can design your home to include a Home Theater and locate flat screen TV’s wherever you want.
5. Safety
Technological advances mean that today’s homes are safer, because new homes take advantage of breakthroughs in building science. Homes now have advanced electrical systems, hardwired smoke detectors, and fire-resistant construction details. Windows in patio doors and near stairways have tempered glass, which makes them less likely to cause injury if they break.
6. Quality of new construction
With new construction you get the best materials. Today’s products are tested to meet ever increasing higher standards. There is no comparison of the effectiveness, reliability and energy efficiency of today’s windows, furnaces, hot water heaters, etc. compared to 20 years, 10 years or even 5 years ago.
7. New homes are more energy efficient
Building a home is not much more expensive than purchasing an existing home. In our last article there is an analysis of price vs. cost. With a new home, the small increase in price is more than offset by reduced utility bills which result in a lower total monthly cost. Examples of products that are more energy efficient include the furnace, air conditioner, appliances, hot water heater and the windows.
8. For buyers with allergies – no pets, mold exists in new homes
How many times have you toured existing homes only to find out after several sneezes that the previous owner had pets living within the home? With new construction not only do you eliminate any pet odors or allergens, but also the chance of mold or mildew buildup in an existing home. With your new dream home, you eliminate the chance of allergic reactions to unknown allergies.
9. Everything is covered by a warranty
When you purchase a new home from Elite, everything is covered by our warranty for at least 1 year. Many items are covered for 2 years, 5 years, 10 years and the roof shingles are covered for 30 years. This warranty is provided to you up front before you sign a contract. We also can provide an extensive list of hundreds of past customers from our 32 years in business.
