Here, we discuss the advantages of buying new construction homes in Central and Eastern Alabama.Benefits of New Construction HomesThe choice between buying a new home over a previously owned home can be uncertain, but purchasing a new build offers a range of benefits for homebuyers in the booming real estate market.Modern Design and Customization OptionsOne of the biggest attractions of new construction homes is how your builder can tailor your home to your style preferences. With previously owned homes, you must adapt your style to fit what already exists within the home. You can make updates and renovations, but these can be expensive.However, with new constructions, you can choose the floor plans, fixtures, and appliances for your home. This allows you to create your “dream home” from the start.Energy Efficiency New construction homes are more energy-efficient than older ones. Older homes have outdated windows, appliances, and insulation that lead to higher energy bills. At Lowder New Homes, we integrate green initiatives and energy efficiency into all our new builds.We want our homes to conserve energy and reduce utility costs for homeowners without sacrificing performance and comfort.The following features come standard in our homes:High-density exterior wall insulationLoose-fill fiberglass attic insulationEnergy Star® qualified heating and cooling systemsEnergy Star® “Low E” windowsGE® appliancesYou’ll stay warm in the winter and cool during the summer while enjoying lower energy bills.Low Maintenance CostsNew homes have brand-new everything—appliances, HVAC, wiring, roofs, and plumbing. You shouldn’t have any expensive repairs or replacements to do in the first few years of owning your home. Additionally, since they use modern construction materials and methods, the siding and foundation of your home should last longer than previously owned homes.At Lowder New Homes, we want your home to last a lifetime. Every home we build undergoes a thorough inspection by a third party to make sure it meets our high standards of safety and quality. We also offer a written warranty backed by our full-service Warranty Department and 24/7 response line.
