Why Choose New Construction?

When you're shopping for a home, you might be torn between older, established homes and brand-new construction. While both have their pros and cons, new construction often offers several compelling advantages that older homes simply can't match.

Incentives That Work for You

Home builders aren't financially constrained like typical homeowners, which means they can offer better incentives to close the deal. From covering closing costs to offering upgrades at no extra charge, builders are in a position to sweeten the deal, making the purchase of a new home even more attractive.

No Expensive Surprises

One of the biggest challenges of buying an older home is the unknowns—many of which come with hefty price tags. Whether it’s a new roof, siding, or mechanical systems, these repairs can add up quickly. With new construction, everything is brand new, backed by warranties, so you don’t have to worry about unexpected costs right after you move in.

Clear Sightlines & Better Parking

New neighborhoods are often designed with modern conveniences in mind. For example, power lines are typically buried underground, clearing up sightlines to enjoy natural views, with Mount Hood often in the backdrop. Plus, parking in new communities is designed with today’s needs in mind—no more fighting for street spots!

Personalization

One of the greatest perks of buying a new construction home is the ability to choose your finishes. Whether it's countertops, flooring, or even paint colors, new construction homes allow you to personalize the space to reflect your style from day one.

Energy Efficiency

With rising utility costs, the energy efficiency of a new construction home is a major advantage. Today’s builders use eco-friendly materials, advanced insulation, and energy-efficient appliances to keep electric bills down while maintaining a comfortable living environment.
