Disadvantages of a
Resale Home
A small percentage of homes in the marketplace are not considered to
be in move-in condition. If both live-in partners happen to be working
at full time jobs, a move-in condition home is by far the best
alternative. If the property is being under "power of sale" or the
property has been rented for many years the home may require a lot of
work. If the buyer is not handy or does not have the additional up
front capital then the purchaser would be better off buying a home in
move-in condition or a brand new home. Additionally, as a home gets on
in age certain systems such as heating, cooling, roofing, and/or
windows need to be upgraded.
Although some perceive the paragraph above as a disadvantage, some
consider it as an advantage. A home that needs some fixing up can in
fact present some clear cost advantage to a buyer. Usually, it can be
purchased below the going market value, while at the same time
providing an opportunity to have it decorated to suite your specific
tastes.
Neighbourhood: Known or Unknown Factor
When you buy a resale home, you can find out a lot more about the
property and the neighbourhood before you buy than when you buy a new
home. Land to support new-home developments usually is located on the
outskirts of town. Potential buyers should ask the developer about
future access to public transit, entertainment activities, shopping
centers, churches, and schools. Local zoning ordinances also should be
reviewed. A rather remote area can turn into a fast-food-chain haven
within a couple of years. Try to ensure that the neighbourhood, if not
strictly residential, will not begin sprawling out of control.

Tips from NORTHCON CONSTRUCTION AND
MANAGEMENT CORPORATION
Buying into a new-home community may
seem riskier than purchasing a house in an established neighbourhood,
but any increase in home value depends upon the same factors: quality
of the neighbourhood, growth in the local housing market and the state
of the overall economy. One survey by the National Association of
Realtors shows that resale homes do have an edge over new homes when
it comes to appreciation.
More Questions and Items to Consider
There is a major decision early in the process of purchasing a new
home and that is whether to build a new home or purchase a resale home
already on the market. The following provides some considerations that
may help you make an informed decision.
Location, location, location.
Are new homes being built in the area you desire? Do you know the
surrounding zoning and what will be constructed in the area? How far
away are services (schools, stores, hospital, doctors, etc.) that you
need? How long is the commute to work?
Investment.
Typically, due to the continual addition of features, rising labor and
material costs, new homes cost more than similar resale homes. Are you
having to pay significant impact or lot levies or taxes and fees that
are imposed on the builder? Are the taxes on the new home much higher
than a comparable resale home? Will you be in the new home until the
area is built out so you will not be competing with the builders
should you need to sell the home? Is the home going to be high priced
compared to other homes built or going to be built in the area?
Features.
Are the style and features that you desire only available in a new
home? Can you find a resale home with most of the features and
amenities you desire? Can you add the features you desire to a resale
home? Are newer resale homes available that meet your needs?
Risk.
Is the new home builder or developer financially stable? Is the
builder a large well known company with a good reputation? Is the
builder asking for significant down payments or advance payments? Are
there complaints lodged against the builder for shoddy work or not
making repairs? Has the builder been delivering homes when promised?
Check with your Better Business Bureau, the town or the city and talk
to homeowners that have purchased a home from the builder.
In summary, a resale home can cost less, be more conveniently located,
you know the area and amenities and have less risk involved. A new
home can be constructed to have the exact style and features you
desire, but usually with much higher costs, limited locations, and
more risk.
Conclusion
In today's market place both new and resale homes are selling briskly.
Once you've evaluated the pros and cons of each alternative, you can
make an intelligent, educated decision as to which option is best
suited for your particular needs.
Ultimately, the decision should be based on your needs and wants, your
family and/or children, your tolerance for risk and the unknown and
ultimately your budget.
