Builders of new construction homes in Greenville, SC and in the surrounding area will often launch a community and its floorplans by introducing incentives to prospective buyers. So what are incentives and how can they save you money on the purchase of your new build home?

Incentives: What are They and When are They Offered?

Incentives are promotions offered by builders/developers that will help to cut the cost of the home and lot. Becoming increasingly common, these promotions help to entice cash-strapped buyers to make an offer. It is important to note that these discounts aren’t always as simple as they seem.

Below we will provide more information on residential homebuilding incentives and why it's important to have a realtor by your side navigating the ins and outs of these promotions and how to get the best deal on your new home.

Much like a coupon, and incentive helps to create a better deal on the new home, lot, or both. Often times an incentive will be one or several of the following:

• Cash towards upgrades
• Sign a contract before a particular date and all closing costs are paid
• Buying down an interest rate if you use their lender
• Extensive home warranties
• Free appliances/appliance packages

Most all residential builders will offer incentives in the beginning building phase to drum up attention from buyers in the area and beyond. Now incentives are not always given in the beginning, in fact they can be offered at any phase of the development. This is especially true for the end phase when there may still be lots left in the community. Sometimes if the market is lagging, builders will also introduce lower interest rates and cash at close to help buyers who would otherwise opt out of building a new home.

Incentives sometimes are not advertised and will require a call to a sales office. This is where having a realtor comes in handy. Your realtor can go with you and help read through the fine print, review floorplans and lots, and help look at the incentives offered. Whether you have a budget or no budget at all, having a buyer's agent will help you know exactly where your money is going.

Financial Incentives: How Do They Work with Builders?

Since builders work closely with certain preferred lenders, most financial incentives will be based on the buyer using the lender that accepts the terms of the financial incentive. So if a buyer has a lender who is already helping them, then financial incentives may not be available to them.

With a realtor, buyers will have inside knowledge to the incentives that are available and their stipulations. Also, an agent will be able to help you deduce which community, lot, and floorplan will offer you what you are wanting and needing in your new construction home. 

Real estate agents will be aware of any penalties, delays, etc. that could be associated with bringing your own lender to the closing table. They can review all of the contracts with you and the sales office to ensure there are no surprises or caveats that could slow or stop buying your brand new home. 

Other Deals and Discounts 

When purchasing a new construction home be sure to consider other deals and discounts that may apply. From military to first time home buyers and over 55, builders may have a private discount available that can be applied in addition to the incentives mentioned above.

Above we went over what incentives are, when they are offered, and the different types that are generally available. We also went over the need of having an real estate agent with you during the process.

Floorplan of The Marshall Floorplan

New construction homes for sale in Greenville SC present a blank slate that a home owner can design in any way that they want to fit their lifestyle. Are you thinking of building a new construction home and wanting more information on how to make the most of your visit to the design center? Well this blog will give you all of that info and more so that you can make your mark on your new home with confidence. Keep reading below to learn essential design tips for new construction home.

Plan it Out

Having a plan in place before your design meeting will not only help you find your décor direction, it will enable you to really get an idea of what your style is and the money you want to spend. First, determine how much money you have to spend. Next, know the size and layout of the floorplan.

With those two things known, you can move into the exploration phase of your plan and find your sense of style. Consider creating a design board, or mood board. These boards will help you stay on a path and give you a visual representation not just for you but for your new home consultant sales member. 

While in the planning stage, try not to make too many purchases or any at all preferably. While it might seem like a good idea to buy that sofa you just fell in love with at the furniture store, hold tight to ensure you can find all of the décor elements you want to go with it.

Paint: Now or Later

Most often your new construction home will have a paint package that will include several colors for various rooms and accent walls. Although it may be hard to hear, it is actually best to wait to paint. Homes need to settle for best results. New home owners should plan on painting a year to two after construction is completed.

If you do choose to paint so that the home can be move in ready, just know that you will want to ask the builder to leave behind some extra paint for touch ups. Remembering that everything is brand new, and walls and floors are shifting and settling, repainting and touchups won't come as a surprise with this knowledge in hand. 

Furniture and Aesthetics

As we mentioned above, purchasing furniture too soon could be counterintuitive as well as costly. When designing a home, you will want to consider your anchor pieces carefully. Anchor pieces include:

• Couches
• Dining room sets
• Beds

The first step in furnishing a new home is to take inventory what you already have. There may be several pieces that will easily translate into the new space. Write out a list for each room in the home so you know what and where each item is planning to go. This list is best created in the planning phase.

When purchasing furniture keep in mind the lead time in which the item will arrive. An finally measure, measure, measure. Knowing the measurements of your room as well as the furniture you are considering is imperative to not making costly mistakes, and then having to deal with the hassle of returns.

Measuring will also come in handy when considering window treatments. Some new construction homes come with a blinds package. If curtains will be considered, measure the length of windows and how high to hang the rods can easily be done with the assistance of most home improvement store consultants.

However, with a notebook, measuring tape, stepstool, and visuals, you can easily complete the task yourself. If this is something you would rather leave to a professional, be sure to ask what is included in the windows package when designing your new home.

Customization is Key

As one of the biggest pros to buying a new construction home, customization is a major plus. If it fits within your budget and make s money sense, swap out the builder's grade options. From door handles to trim and more, customization can be a great way to really add your own touch to the build. 

Customizing light fixtures, faucets, or cabinets can really add an elevated look to any home. If it makes sense for you and your wallet and is a task you would rather not tackle in the future, consider customizing your new construction home.

Remember, changes don't need to happen at once. Whether its painting, upgrading the flooring or changing out handles, expect the process of decorating a new construction home to take a few years to be "perfect". 

It is important to have a real estate agent by your side to go over all upgrades, incentives and to look out for your best interest when purchasing new construction. Have questions? Contact PRODUCER Realty Team at 864-438-5050.

If you have been looking for new construction homes for sale in Greenville SC  or you just started the search, no doubt you have seen numerous neighborhoods springing into creation. From Greenville to Spartanburg and back it is very likely you have driven past multiple new construction communities. Each one from a different builder, and homes ranging from starter size all the way up to 3000+ sq ft. 

In our last blog we discussed what to consider when thinking about a new construction home and briefly skimmed over the benefits these homes have to offer. Below we are going to dive deeper into new construction benefits and breakdown the importance of them. 

Low-Cost Maintenance

Low maintenance costs are the number one benefit of new construction homes. From tankless water heaters and PEX plumbing to brand new appliances and HVAC systems, a new construction home will only leave you wondering about how to decorate and settle in rather than worrying about what and when something may break. 

With worry free maintenance, a newly built home will adhere to the latest building codes and are engineered to require less care and maintenance throughout the coming years. With fewer unexpected out-of-pocket expenses after move-in, homeowners can focus on enjoying their new home.

High-Rated Energy Efficiency

With new homes featuring modern construction and systems in addition to advanced technologies, there comes the added benefit of energy efficiency. Homeowners can benefit from reduced monthly utility bills and the reassurance that their home meets certain energy standards and requirements. New construction homes include:

• Insulated walls and ceilings
• High-efficiency HVAC systems 
• Energy efficient windows
• Proper sealing around doors and windows
• LED lightbulbs

Move-In Ready

New homes are best for those who recently located, limited budget, or have a particular timeline to adhere to. With a new construction home, all you need is your suitcase and furniture. The moment you walk in, everything is done so all you have to do is unpack, hang your pictures and put your food in the fridge. Most all newly built homes will include:

• Washer and dryer
• Refrigerator
• Stove and oven
• Microwave and Dishwasher

Modern Floor Plans and Designs

From the moment you decide that a new construction home is for you, the fun can begin. With a plethora of designs and floorplans to pick from, a new home can be built to suit your style as well as your needs. Maybe you need several bedrooms for the kiddos or a second master because you care for a parent or grandparent. No matter your needs, most new construction homes can be built to keep your life's needs in mind every step of the way.

With a clean slate, you don't have to rip out that carpet from the 90's or knock down that box light in the kitchen. You can leave your touch on every design choice form the backsplash to the flooring and wall colors. There is something very satisfying when you look around your new home and know that you created every detail. 

New Home Warranty

And just like that you built a home, now what? Well with new construction, your investment is protected under a new home warranty. Inside and out, you will have the confidence in knowing that your home is safe from issues during the warranty period. 

The builder will cover the cost of any covered problems during the warranty period such as a broken water heater, HVAC system or a leak in the roof. Unlike a pre-owned home where you are left with the bill, a new home will be covered and will give you one less thing to worry about in case something goes wrong. Keep in mind that when reviewing the home warranty it is best to have your real estate agent present to help review.

Top Amenities

Newly construction homes are generally built in a community that will include an array of amenities. From free lawn care to pools and clubhouses, many of these neighborhoods have something for everyone. Although these communities require an HOA fee, it is almost always worth it.  

It is important to keep in mind that every community is different and knowing exactly what will be included and when it will be built could impact your decision making. Also it is imperative to ask what is allowed on your lot. For example, if you prefer a private pool versus a community pool, be sure to ask if the community allows them on individual lots. Other amenities that may be included in a new construction community are: 

• Community events
• Tennis courts
• Gated entry and exit
• Walking trails
