If you’re thinking of buying a home, it’s one of the first questions you need to answer: New build or resale? Both come with advantages and drawbacks, but as builders of premier new homes ourselves we believe there is a distinct advantage with choosing a new build from a reputable company with a solid track record.

Here are six benefits of buying new.

• You Can Still Get Them Quickly

  One of the most appealing aspects of purchasing a resale home is the convenience of moving in quickly. New-build homes often have long waiting periods before they’re ready. However, we offer quick closings at Kingsmen, allowing you to move into your brand-new home in as little as 90 days.

• Full Customization Options

  Finding a resale home with the ideal layout, features, finishes and more can take months, and it often means you’ll have to do at least a few renovations to make it your own. In contrast, new builds offer full customization from the start. By purchasing early, you can design the layout and choose fixtures to match your taste.

  At Kingsmen’s design studio, we provide extensive customization options, allowing buyers to personalize their homes to reflect their unique style.

• Clear Pricing & More Flexible Payment Arrangements

  Resale homes often come with the risk of bidding wars, which can drive up the price tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. In contrast, many builders offer clear price ranges and flexible payment options along with financing incentives that can make your purchase more affordable and manageable.

• Lower Maintenance Costs

  New-build homes typically require far less maintenance than older, resale homes. Everything from the roof to the appliances are brand new, meaning you won’t be dealing with major repairs for years. And while resale homes may require an inspection to uncover items in need of repair, new homes come with warranties that cover any unexpected issues, providing added peace of mind.

• Energy Efficiency

  New homes are built with modern energy-efficient materials and appliances, which translates to lower utility bills. High-performance insulation and energy-efficient windows ensure your home consumes less energy and is more environmentally friendly.

• New Community Amenities

  Many new developments are designed with community living in mind, offering shared spaces such as parks, playgrounds, and even shopping areas. These neighbourhoods are often planned to provide modern conveniences, making them ideal for families and individuals.
