Why You Should Buy New

February 25, 2021

Buying a home is much like buying a car. You identify the features that matter to you like a fourth bedroom or additional half bath, compare those with your price range, then start researching whether new or used will work best for you.

The biggest difference is that home buying sets you on a different path altogether once you have made that decision. Homebuilders like Lifestyles Building, design and build new homes in communities like Symphony Farms in Gardner and work directly with homebuyers to ensure they reap all the benefits of new construction. Below, we will detail a few features like these that set Symphony Farms, and other new construction homes, apart.

Up to code

The homebuilding industry is constantly evolving with new technology and construction techniques. This means your new home will be built to the latest codes and standards which keeps you safer and saves money throughout the life of your home.

One focus of recent building innovation is energy efficiency with codes requiring tighter barriers around the home. At Symphony Farms, we utilize insulated duct work along with improved vapor barriers and insulation practices to meet these standards. We also install furnaces with an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of 92 percent at the center of the right-sized HVAC system and low-E windows to maintain a consistent and comfortable temperature.

New homes are also designed to the latest trends with popular features like large, open kitchens for entertaining and walk-in closets for each bedroom. 

Covered by warranty 

If you do run into trouble, new homes are covered by comprehensive warranties from both the manufacturers and builders that protect your investment and reduce maintenance costs in the first five years.

When evaluating the price of a home, it is crucial to consider investments like appliances and other large expenses you may incur down the road. This includes features like the HVAC system that typically has a 15 or 20-year life expectancy, the roof, the floors, and the interior and exterior paint. Buying a new home starts this clock on your watch so you can better predict the timeline for future projects.

Personalized for you

Participating in the homebuilding process with a builder like Symphony Farms allows you to dictate your personal style from the beginning. 

Once you have chosen a lot and a floor plan that fits your needs, you will work through design selections with our experienced design center team to finalize your new space. This covers everything from the shingles to the floors and the finish of the faucets. Everything that makes this home feel like yours.
