What to Expect with a New Construction Home

October 27, 2020

Buying a home is a goal and dream of many and has lifelong benefits. With a house, you can even afford to give a place to stay for other generations. While you are there, the house can suit your family’s needs and lifestyle. A new construction home is a little different, however. Here is what to expect with buying and living in a new construction home.

Types of New Construction

There are various types of new construction, ranging from the tract homes to the custom homes. Some people will be completely satisfied with a tract or a spec house, which is built to sell, usually in a new construction neighborhood. These home designs appeal to the average home buyer. Meanwhile, there are varying levels of customizability between custom home building companies, and you might benefit from either total customization or working from a template. At Ameri-Star we provide our clients the benefit of Buy-Wise we customize.  Unlike most of our competitors, we customize and make alterations to your home based on your family needs.  Our state of the art Design Center provides an array of customizable avenues.

Home Builder Criteria

When looking for a new construction home, you can expect to research extensively for the right home builder. You will want to determine what area you want to live in and research building companies from there. Each one is different and may offer different home designs; they may also offer differing warranties, features, and inspections.

Warranties

It’s crucial to look up what kind of warranties each home builder offers. The warranty covers costs for damages due to defective building materials or improper construction. Ameri-Star Homes, located in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, has a 10-year transferable warranty issued by the Quality Builders Warranty Corporation.

Home Inspection

Usually, a home builder will conduct a walkthrough of the home after its construction to inspect that the home is built to reasonable standards. Ameri-Star Homes has processes to do walkthroughs during and post construction.  Just ask our sales representatives for details.

Cost

People generally assume that buying a custom home or new construction is more expensive than a regular home, but with Ameri-Star Homes, you can have the best of both worlds. In fact, you may be able to have a high-quality custom home that suits your needs better than an existing structure that costs more.
