If you’ve been thinking about buying a home, you may be wondering: Is now the right time to build?
Evolving market conditions, energy-efficient advancements, and customizable home options are lending to ideal conditions to build new!
Here’s why:
1. The Price Gap Between New & Existing Homes Has Narrowed
For years, new construction homes came with a significant price premium over older homes. However, recent trends show that the gap has narrowed significantly. Nationally, new homes now average only a 3% price premium over existing homes—compared to the historical average of 16%. This shift makes buying new more affordable than ever, allowing homeowners to enjoy modern features, energy efficiency, and fewer maintenance costs without paying significantly more than they would for an older home.
2. Energy Efficiency & Cost Savings
All Mayberry Homes are designed with the latest energy-efficient technology and ENERGY STAR Certified, helping homeowners save money and reduce their environmental impact.
Features like:
✅ Advance framing technologies
✅ High-performance insulation
✅ Smart thermostats and energy-efficient HVAC systems
✅ LED lighting and Energy Star appliances
These innovations not only lower utility bills but also enhance overall comfort and sustainability.
3. Fewer Repairs & Lower Maintenance Costs
Buying a resale home often means unexpected repairs and maintenance costs.
With a newly built home, you’ll enjoy:
✔️ Brand-new materials and appliances covered under warranty
✔️ No immediate repair costs for roofing, plumbing, or electrical systems
✔️ Low-maintenance exterior features like durable siding and energy-efficient windows
This means less stress and fewer expenses in the early years of homeownership.
4. Long-Term Value & Strong Market Potential
Real estate remains one of the best long-term investments, and building new ensures that your home is up to today’s market standards. With newer communities designed for growth, homes built now will hold their resale value longer compared to older properties that may require significant updates in the future.
