Why are more and more homebuyers looking to new construction homes over resale homes? My latest appearance on “The American Dream” will clear that up.

I recently joined Kara Kay with "The American Dream" to talk about the Northern Texas real estate market. You can watch the full interview above, but here’s a written summary of what we discussed:
There’s a high demand for new construction homes right now in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. With a shortage of pre-owned homes available for sale, many of my homebuyers have opted to build instead. Who wouldn’t want a brand new home that you can design your way? Building a dream home is something that many people are looking forward to and we’re so fortunate to have great builders who offer great products in varied prices.
One of these great builders is Mike Tadlock, the VP of Sales for History Maker Homes. The technology on a new construction home is far superior to that of a 12 to 15-year old home. The value of a new construction home tends to lead to better opportunities for a buyer. You don’t have to worry about anything breaking with a warranty, and you’ll get lower energy costs with efficient appliances.

Other advantages of buying a new home including energy-efficient windows, water conservant plumbing, smart appliances, and automated lights and doors. The builders warranty is also important. You never have to worry about your A/C dying in the summer or your water heater bursting in the winter with a new home. If a problem does arise, the warranty will cover it right away. You’ll be safe, sound, and protected.
A home warranty is one of the best things about buying a new home.

91,000 people moved into the Dallas/Fort Worth market this last year. What we’ve seen is that people are finding the affordability factor in this area as superior to the places they’ve been living previously. As a result, they are getting more home for their money.
Thanks to Kara for having us. If you have any questions about the market or about buying a new home, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We would love to hear from you soon.
