About Greene County, OH

Beavercreek Ohio New Construction Real Estate

If you are in the market for a new home anywhere in Greene or Montgomery County areas, you are in luck!
Beavercreek, Fairborn, and surrounding areas are in a tough market where deals are sure to be found. Don’t overlook the option of new construction. There are a number of quality builders in our area that would love to build your next home.
When given the alternative of buying a new home that has never been lived in versus buying a pre-existing home that doesn't exactly have the space, configuration or amenities you and your family desire, the choice becomes clear! Nothing beats a brand new home--much like enjoying the scent from a brand new car.
Benefits are abundant with residential new construction:

The operative word with residential new construction is “YOU.”

* You pick the floor plan and elevation.

* You can modify the plan within limits to fit your taste and needs. If you need bigger closets change the plan, need an open air area remove the dividing non-bearing wall between the kitchen and living room, want a side egress door with 2’ of extra space on either side in the garage because you have an SUV. It’s up to you.

* You get to pick flooring, paint, brick, counter tops, carpet, lighting & plumbing fixtures, cabinets etc.. etc...

Sounds like a great idea and in this market I’m sure to get a deal. What I tell my clients is this; the best thing about residential new construction is you get to make all the choices and decisions. The worse thing about new construction is you get to make all the choices and decisions. Sounds like tongue and cheek talk but it’s the truth. New construction done right is a large effort and responsibility. In order to get a great product at the end of construction when the occupancy permit is release you’ll need a plan and a team.

As Thanksgiving comes closer, it reminds us to be thankful!

Here are my top five things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving and everyday.

1. I am thankful for my daughter, who has grown up to be quite a smart young woman. She is in College and has a spark for life that I love to see. At age 21 she is trying to figure out what she wants to do with her life and is making great progress in her quest! She is also a very giving person and sometimes helps me with my business.

2. I am thankful for my wonderful husband, who I was lucky enough to meet last fall and marry in March. He is strong, supportive, smart and makes me feel secure in our life and future. He also makes me laugh! He opens the car door for me everytime we are out, drops me at the mall door when it's raining or cold and appreciates the small things in life... says things like "thanks for making dinner!"

3. My parents - parents of 6, they have nerves of steel! Always there when you need them. My Mom loves to help me send out my items of value each month to my clients and my Dad likes to help with any construction project in the neighborhood, if they need it or not! They love it when the family can get together and we do it often, which takes me to my next thing to be thankful for.

4. MY BIG FAT CRAZY FAMILY - With 5 brothers and sisters having a total of 21 children and step-children, most of them grown now, having a Thanksgiving or Christmas party is now well into the 30's on head count. I am thankful for each and every one of them. (Even the ones who think bringing a covered dish means making jello shots!)

5. Most of all I am THANKFUL to be THANKFUL - Every day you have a choice to appreciate your life or to think about the things you don't like or don't have. Be thankful that you get to wake up in the morning. Be thankful for your health and the health of your family, be thankful for your clients and business, be thankful for your home and the food on your table. Be thankful that you can give to the less fortunate.

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving and Gratitude throughout the year!

Many new construction homeowners think the city, government, or even the builder will ensure that the construction of your home is being performed at the highest quality and attention to detail. This simply isn't true. The city enforces minimum building codes. Although the minimum complies with the law you paid maximum price and should be confident that you are getting what you paid for. It is important that an inspection by an independent third party and be performed a three significant milestones.

1) After the foundation has been completed

2) Pre-drywall

3) Prior to close to create your punch list.

New construction is an endeavor that shouldn’t be taken lightly. Once you’ve accepted the property and the 1 year warranty has expired you inherit any and all problems that could have been caught in one of the aforementioned inspections. In addition, the buyer should not rely solely upon the assistance of the rep that sits in the model and takes your order. Many of the assistance are not licensed and represent the interest of the builder.

One common misconception I often hear with new construction buyers is that if they were to use a Realtor in the purchase of a new construction home that it would somehow cost more to purchase the property. In fact, the truth is just the opposite. Most builders have already factored in the cost of any commission that would be provided to the buyer’s Realtor as a known cost of sale. So if a buyer doesn’t bring representation then the builder gets to pocket that money you paid as profit.

Bottom line, protect yourself. You owe it to yourself to ensure you are well informed and making the best decisions possible. Don’t go into a new construction project unarmed and alone.
