Understanding New Construction Advantages
New homes offer warranties, modern building codes compliance, and energy efficiency. However, thorough inspections remain essential to catch construction defects early.
Pre-Closing Walkthrough Checklist
Verify all advertised features are installed. Check for paint quality, cabinet gaps, and hardware functionality. Inspect caulking and grout work. Test all appliances and systems.
Documentation Is Key
Document any issues with photos and written notes. Request a second walkthrough to verify repairs were made properly. Don't close until all items are addressed.
