Hard Hat Tours are the Easiest Choice to Make
4 Reasons Why Presales are Primed for Success
If you’re in the market for a new home, taking a hard hat tour through a construction site home may lead the way to Destination Dreamhome.
A presale is a home that’s available to purchase prior to being move-in ready.
Before HGTV and TikTok’s transformation reels became a part of our everyday intake, people noted difficulty doing the mental gymnastics necessary to foresee a home in rough construction as attractive. However, in a recent survey conducted by our team, 94% of respondents said they are now able to visualize a property from open wall status to move-in ready. And who says our tiny ape brains can’t evolve?
Now, aside from the ability to mentally visualize oneself in a space during a hard hat tour, here are four of our favorite reasons a presale home is an excellent place to househunt.
- Time is on your side: One advantage of buying a presale home is that it gives you time to save more money. Although you’ll have already prequalified for your mortgage – or even pre-approved – a presale home gives you additional time to put money away for your new home.
- New vs Old: Homes bought through presale are newly finished, up to code, and generally covered by a new home warranty. This major bonus means less headaches often associated with move-in costs of older or previously owned homes. Check out this article from Motley Fool about how an older home with a lower price tag can sometimes end up costing you more than a brand new one. https://www.fool.com/the-ascent/mortgages/articles/4-things-to-budget-for-when-you-buy-an-older-home/
- Bidding War Bow Out: As with many properties currently on the market, multiple offers, and therefore bidding wars, can often ensue. With a presale, because the move-in date is somewhere in the future, this can eliminate competition, making it far less stressful to make an offer.
- Know your developer: When buying a new property, you have the usually unavailable insider track of knowing who built your home. We work with the best in our area, and in one of the potentially most stressful purchases, piece of mind is paramount.
Moral of the story, strap on the hardhat, open your eyes to possibilities, and add presale homes to your hunt list. Who knows, your dreamhome destination likely awaits.
