CHOOSE THE NEW-HOME PATH THAT FITS YOUR MOVE
Quick Move-In Homes
Completed or nearing completion, these homes may work well for buyers who want new construction with a shorter or more predictable timeline.
Homes Under Construction
Construction is already underway, which may provide a balance between a brand-new home and a shorter wait than starting from the beginning.
To-Be-Built Homes
Choose an available floor plan and homesite, then move through the builder’s construction and selection process.
Custom & Semi-Custom Homes
For buyers seeking greater flexibility in layout, finishes, homesite or design, custom and semi-custom options may provide a more personalized path.
WHY HAVE YOUR OWN REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL
A beautiful model home can make buying new construction feel simple, but there are many decisions behind the finished product. Your UT Real Estate Pros professional can help you research communities, compare builders and homes, evaluate homesites, understand the real estate portions of the transaction, track important dates and keep your priorities at the center of the process.
THE BUILDER HAS A TEAM, YOU SHOULD TOO
Compare Builders & Communities: We can help you look beyond the staging and finishes to location, amenities, homesites, future phases and overall fit.
Understand the Contract & Timeline: Builder contracts, deadlines, deposits, selections, financing requirements, and completion timelines can differ from traditional resale transactions. Your agent can help you stay organized and understand the real estate portions of the process.
Evaluate Builder Incentives: Builders may offer financing incentives, closing-cost assistance, design credits, rate programs, or other promotions. We can help you compare the overall offer rather than focusing on one incentive alone.
Lot & Property Considerations: Lot orientation, topography, neighboring homes, future phases, roadways, views, drainage, and surrounding development can all matter long after move-in.
Inspections & Walkthroughs: New does not mean that buyers should automatically skip independent inspections. Your agent can help you understand available inspection and walkthrough opportunities during your purchase
Think Beyond Move-in Day: Even if you plan to stay for years, floor plan, lot placement, upgrades, community development, and other choices can influence how the property may appeal to future buyers.
WHAT SHOULD YOU COMPARE BEFORE YOU BUILD OR BUY?
Model homes are designed to showcase possibilities, and they may contain upgrades, structural options, landscaping, furnishings, or finishes that are not included in a standard base price. Before comparing homes based only on what you see in the model, it’s important to understand what is actually included in the home you are considering.
Understand what is actually included in the advertised starting price.
Bedrooms, bathrooms, garage configurations, extensions, casitas, basements and other structural choices may vary by builder and floor plan.
Flooring, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, appliances and other finish selections can significantly affect the final home.
Homesite size, orientation, views and location within the community may affect cost.
Consider planned phases, neighboring lots, roadways, commercial development and other information available about the surrounding area.
Community Costs:
Review HOA information, community amenities, transfer fees and other applicable costs.
