Why You Should Choose a New Construction Home

Why You Should Choose a New Construction Home

When it comes to buying a home, one of the most significant decisions you'll face is whether to purchase an existing property or invest in a new construction home. While both options have their merits, new construction homes offer a unique set of advantages that can make them an appealing choice for many buyers. Here are some compelling reasons to consider purchasing a new construction home.

Energy Efficiency

New construction homes are more energy-efficient than older homes. They are built to the latest energy codes and standards, which means they often include features like high-performance windows, superior insulation, energy-efficient HVAC systems, and ENERGY STAR-rated appliances. These energy-saving components not only reduce your carbon footprint but also translate into lower utility bills, making your home more affordable in the long run.

Customization Options

When you buy a new construction home, you often have the opportunity to customize various aspects of the property to suit your tastes and lifestyle. Whether it's selecting the type of flooring, choosing paint colors, or upgrading kitchen fixtures, new construction homes offer a level of personalization that can't be found in pre-owned properties without a lot of personal expense or DIY work! This customization ensures that your home reflects your personal style and meets your unique needs right from the start.

Low Maintenance and Warranties

One of the biggest advantages of purchasing a new construction home is the reduced need for maintenance and repairs. Everything in the home is brand new, from the roof to the plumbing, so you can expect fewer issues compared to an older home. In 2022, on average, used homeowners spent $6,000 on repairs and maintenance. That number really starts to add up over just the first couple of years in a used home! To save you even more money and, new homes also often come with builder warranties that cover various components of the home for a certain period, providing you with peace of mind and protection against unexpected repair costs. At Schuber Mitchell Homes we offer a 2-year builder warranty for any material or workmanship items and up to 10-year structural warranty for the bones of the home. 

Community Amenities and Location

New construction homes are often built in planned communities that offer a range of amenities and conveniences. These may include parks, playgrounds, walking trails, fitness centers, swimming pools, and even community centers. Additionally, many new developments are strategically located near schools, shopping centers, and major transportation routes, making it easier for you to access everything you need. 

Here are a few of the amenities that Schuber Mitchell Homes neighborhoods offer in some of our neighborhoods:
Rainer Farms, Southwest MO - Trail connection
Whiskey Ridge, Northeast OK - neighborhood pool, playground, pickleball courts, clubhouse, and 2 ponds
Frazier Meadows, Northeast OK - fishing pond, pickleball courts, swimming pool with recreational space, scenic walking paths, and dry reserves

Safety and Building Codes

New construction homes are built to comply with the latest safety standards and building codes. This means they include modern safety features such as fire-resistant materials, advanced electrical systems, and improved structural integrity. Living in a home that meets these rigorous standards can provide you with greater peace of mind and a safer living environment for you and your family.

If you're in the market for a new home, consider the many benefits of new construction and how they can enhance your living experience so you'll love coming home.
