NEW Construction Homes - PROS and CONS of Buying

 

We are pleased to announce this week's New Video!

"New Construction Homes - Pros and Cons of Buying"

Whether retiring, downsizing, or you are buying your very first home then you might be considering buying a brand new construction home. New construction homes are ones where you are the first buyer and they have never been lived in. These can include single family detached houses, condominiums, and townhomes. 

It seems like this might be the best way to get in to the market whether downsizing, relocating, or even as a first time buyer. Well that shiny new home may seem to be appealing, however, you need to know there are pros and cons to buying a new construction home. This video gives you 5 pros and 5 cons for your consideration before taking this route to buying your new home.

Also, many people wonder whether they really need a Realtor® when buying a new construction home from a developer. See our comments on this near the end of the video.

As always, we appreciate your comments and suggestions. Also we would appreciate your ideas on topics that you think would benefit people like you who are entering or moving around in the Greater Victoria real estate market.

Please take a minute to view our new video and please help us to get the word out about our site by liking the video, sharing it with a friend or two, and subscribing to our YouTube Channel.
