Most of our homes at Andries Builders are custom builds, but we do have some ready available homes to choose from. We completely understand that purchasing a home is one of the most significant investments you'll make, and choosing between a new construction home and a resale property can be a tough decision. While older homes have their charm, new construction homes offer several distinct benefits that can make them an excellent choice for many new buyers. In this article we want to offer some reasons why one of our newly built home might be the perfect option for you.
Energy Efficiency and Lower Utility Bills
Our new homes have been built with the latest energy-efficient technology, including better insulation, high-performance windows, and energy-saving appliances. You can also enjoy features like smart home systems that allow you to control lighting, security, and climate settings from your phone. These features not only make your home more comfortable but also reduce monthly utility costs.
Another perk of being newer, they have been built with modern materials that adhere to strict building standards, meaning you won’t have to deal with lead paint, asbestos, or mold—common issues found in older homes. Additionally, improved ventilation systems and energy-efficient HVAC systems help improve indoor air quality, which is particularly beneficial for those with allergies or respiratory issues.
Lower Maintenance Costs and New Home Warranty Protection
Buying an older home often comes with unexpected maintenance and repair expenses. With one of our new construction homes, everything from the roof to the plumbing is brand new and built to current building codes. This means you won’t have to worry about replacing a water heater, fixing an old HVAC system, or dealing with outdated electrical wiring. Instead you newly built home will include up-to-date electrical wiring, smoke detectors, fire-resistant materials, and better structural integrity to withstand severe weather. These safety enhancements offer greater protection for you and your family.
Most new construction homes come with warranties that cover major structural components and systems for several years. This provides peace of mind, knowing that if any issues arise, the builder will take care of them. In contrast, buying an older home often means inheriting the previous owner’s repairs and maintenance problems.
Conveniently Move-In and Out
Unlike older homes that may require repairs, renovations, or deep cleaning, a new construction home is completely move-in ready. With a brand-new kitchen, fresh paint, and flawless flooring, you can start enjoying your new home from day one without the hassle of immediate upgrades.
These benefits aid you when selling too. Because our new homes are built with modern designs and technology, they tend to have better resale value compared to older properties. Should you decide to sell your Andries home in the future, a newer home will likely be more attractive to buyers who prefer modern layouts and energy-efficient features.
