7 Reasons to Build a Custom Home
If you’re contemplating working with a custom home builder in Raleigh NC, there are countless compelling reasons to build a custom home with Hearthstone Luxury Homes. Compared to buying an existing home, a custom home offers more amenities and advantages. From layout to energy efficiency and much more, a custom home will more easily satisfy all of your wants and dreams.
Consider these seven reasons to build a custom home rather than purchase a pre-existing home.
- Personalize Your Home
When buying a home, you often have to make compromises on size, layout, and all of those finishing features that you want. With a custom-built home, you can create spaces that are unique and tailored to your lifestyle.
Soaring ceilings in the living room, a wall of glass doors that offer the best of indoor/outdoor living, that dream kitchen, or even a second outdoor kitchen can all be yours with a custom home, without the added costs of renovation.
- Long-term Savings
While a custom home may be more expensive at first glance, the absence of costly upgrades and renovations easily balances out the initial costs. Plus, there are plenty of additional long-term savings you’ll enjoy with a custom build.
For example, there is less likelihood of problems arising for years to come, and should there be any problems, they’re likely to be covered under builder warranties. With new materials, systems, and more, you can start to save money right from the start.
- Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is one of the most important features for many buyers. New homes, especially our luxury homes, are built with the latest technology, materials, and building practices to make your home more efficient compared to homes even just a few years old. You may even qualify for energy efficiency tax credits. Insulation, efficient windows and doors, a solid HVAC system, and smart home technology make your home more comfortable while saving you money.
- Technology Advances
In fact, smart home technology is another reason for building a custom home. Your home can be wired from the group up to make the most of the latest technology, from advanced security systems to in-home entertaining and more. Lights, thermostats, appliances, built-in USB and charging ports, and even safe rooms can all be operated easily at home or even when you’re away from home for added safety and convenience.
- Skip the Real Estate Market
Rather than having to spend weeks or even months trying to find a home that meets some – but rarely all – of your preferences, turn to a custom home builder. You can skip poring over real estate websites and visiting home after home, and go straight to a builder to get the home you want.
- Higher Resale Value
Even if you choose to move someday, custom homes have greater resale value in today’s real estate market, in part because they’re built with high quality materials, and they have the layout and features that today’s buyer wants in a home.
- A Brand New Home
When all of the work is done, you have a brand new personalized home specifically designed and built to satisfy your wants and needs, from media rooms to that perfect wall color and lighting feature and so much more. You’ll truly feel at home right from day one.
