Why Homeowners Prefer Brand New Homes

When people imagine their dream home, they rarely want to think about the people who lived there before them. This is precisely why new homes are so desirable. They are entirely yours, without the mark of anyone else having lived there first. The appeal of a fresh, pristine home cannot be understated; homeowners overwhelmingly prefer a brand new home.

Inside a new home, you can be sure that there are never any surprises or little quirks. Homes that have been previously owned always have small characteristics that give away the activity of previous owners. Whether these are signs of wear and tear on the carpet or the stair that always creaks, you are always reminded of the presence of other people who lived there before you.  

Old homes are also likely to have a number of surprises that only become obvious with use. For instance, old plumbing has a greater likelihood of springing a leak, something that no homeowner wants to deal with. Plumbing and electrical problems often plague older homes.

A newly-built home is more likely to reflect the most up-to-date sensibilities. Not interested in green shag carpet? Looking for a home that boasts light fixtures from recent memory? There are many features that can cause a home to feel dated and tired. Everything from outdated appliances to faded tiling can contribute to that worn out, unappealing feeling. A new home will boast the very latest kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures, carpet, tiling, lighting features, and so much more. Many modern homes are also full equipped with smart home technology, adding to the safety, security, and convenience that comes along with homeownership.
