Home Buying Tips

New vs. Used

Many home shoppers consider buying a resale or used home during the home buying process. We’re glad you’re shopping for a new home that can be custom built by Culver just for you. In fact, we’re happy to review a few of the big benefits of owning a brand new home. Keep these helpful tips in mind as you continue your search for a home to call your very own.

Everything around you is new.

This is your opportunity to live in a home where no one else has lived before. Everything in your home is clean and brand new. There\\\\\\\'s no out-of-date carpeting to rip out, walls to repaint or pesky oil stains on the garage floor.

You can choose a contemporary floor plan that reflects the way you live today.


Think about this for a moment. Many resale homes were built in the 1950s, ‘60s, or ‘70s. Home designs are always evolving to address the different ways people live. With Culver Custom Homes, you will find features like large game rooms, kitchens that open to family rooms, walk-in closets, and master bedroom suites. In a resale home, you may have to move a wall to get the convenience or living space you’re looking for. That’s no fun and definitely not cheap. When you consider the price of a resale home, make sure you factor in all of the hidden costs of updating items that you want to change.

New building materials and appliances are built to last and many include warranties.

Again, why waste time and money fixing up an old home? Owning a new home means having the latest appliances and features. With Culver Custom Homes, you will have brand new appliances, quality flooring, energy-efficient insulation, double-pane low-E windows and modern heating/cooling systems that are low-maintenance and easy to operate. And that’s just scratching the surface. Plus, new products often come with warranties that you won’t find in an older home. When you move into a used home, you may find yourself worrying about the dishwasher breaking down or heating giving out. The results can be a hassle and terribly expensive, too.

Personalize with built to order choices.

Don’t like old, shag carpet� Hate out-of-date kitchens� No one can blame you. That’s why you’ll find only the latest design features at Culver Custom Homes. Each of these features is installed under warranty, and you may be able to take a tax deduction. So, in addition to making the design choices more affordable, you may see savings at tax time. Culver Custom Homes also provides a personal project consultant - for free. The consultant will get to know you, your style, and your home design needs.
