New Build? Here’s How to Protect Your Investment Before Move-In

Buying a new build home often feels exciting, with promises of modern designs and energy efficiency. However, many buyers don’t realize that key features seen in model homes are often upgrades that come with extra costs.

Understanding what’s truly included in the base price, what upgrades cost, and how warranties work is crucial to protecting your investment. Without this knowledge, buyers can face unexpected expenses that impact their budget and satisfaction.

Before move-in, request a full list of included features and any upgrade options. Ask your builder for details on warranty coverage and what to expect during the first year.
