New Construction VS Preowned Homes

New Construction Vs. Previously Owned Homes

Wondering if it's better to buy a new home or a previously owned home? 

In this post, we're going to go over a few things to consider when buying a home whether it's new construction or preowned. 

A few things to consider when buying a previously owned home are: 

  • If you aren’t looking for your forever home, an existing home’s value will give you a good idea of what you can expect when you sell in a few years. 
  • If you buy an existing home, you’ll get more for your money, especially in today’s market. Older homes generally cost less than new homes. 

Some food for thought when buying a new construction home would be: 

  • If you build from the ground up, you may need a construction loan which can have a higher interest rate and down payment than a mortgage for an existing home. 
  •  If you buy new, you’ll be able to customize your home! Options range from choosing a floor plan to selecting backsplashes, paint colors, cabinet hardware, and light fixtures. 

In conclusion, there’s no right or wrong.

Whether it makes sense for you to buy a new or existing one depends on what is best for you and your family!
