Pros and Cons of New Construction
Pros
Brand new home:
Nothing beats the essence, feeling and smell of a brand new home. The purchase of a new home is already exciting but when you are the first one living in it, it surpasses those feelings with overwhelming gratification.
Customized finishes and selections:
Selecting the finishes that you like can be stressful but at the same time fun and learning the latest kitchen colors, home trends and your likes and dislikes can make the experience enriching to say the least. Be careful to not go overboard as the cost of extra amenities or finishes can hike up the final price. We will touch more about that under Cons of buying a new construction home.
All new appliances, plumbing, heating, air and impact windows:
Latest appliances and the peace of mind of having a new roof, plumbing and AC throughout the house for you and your family is stress reducing and in South Florida some new construction properties come with hurricane proof windows. The Florida Building Code (FBC) requires windows to be impact-resistant or protected if located within one mile of the coast where the wind speed is 110 mph or greater.
