Why You Should Buy A New Home
Buying any property is a big decision. Some are always going to be better than others, and the prospect of buying a new property is something that every home buyer should certainly consider. Why? Because it brings so many advantages with it. Of course, your personal preference might be for an older property, but that doesn’t mean that a brand new one wouldn’t suit just as well. Read on to find out why buying a new property is often the best thing you can do. It might be you the impetus you need to move forward in your purchasing decision.
Design Input
If you decide to buy a property before it is even built, or in the early stages of development, you may be able to have some input in the design. There might be a parade of homes that the same developer is responsible for, but since every buyer can put their own mark on their particular property, no two will be alike.
Being able to be involved right from the start is wonderful. It means your home can be exactly as you want it (bearing in mind any design restrictions in place). It also means that your home will feel more like yours. Not many people get to help at the design stage of their homes. When you buy brand new you might be able to.
Structural Warranty
Buying a property is a big investment. There is a lot of money at stake, and it can take all your savings to do it. This means that, if something goes wrong, you won’t have the funds to fix it. This is not something you need to worry about with a new build property. With a new build, you will get a structural warranty that lasts for 10 years, giving you complete peace of mind.
Of course, ideally, nothing will go wrong. However, having this warranty in place means you can buy your new home with confidence. You’ll know that you can live there happily with every issue taken care of; that’s a priceless feeling.
Energy Efficient
Older homes are not energy efficient. In fact, the older the property the worse they are for the environment. And the worse they are for your bank balance as they will cost a lot more to heat and cool. If you want to make an older property better for the environment, you’ll need to spend a lot to do it.
Newer houses, conversely, are extremely energy efficient. They are built that way due to new regulations, and that means you can move in knowing that you are helping the planet. You’ll also save money annually when you add up how much you would have spent on your energy in an older property.
Better Security
When a new home is built, security is an important factor in the design. Many new properties are completed with a security system in place, for example. Often these security systems are extremely high-tech ones, and won’t need a lot of maintenance themselves.
When you have great security like this, you will often find you can bring down the cost of your home insurance. Yet another saving, and another excellent reason to buy a new property.
