Building a home is no doubt exciting, but it is also a lot of work. You are responsible for making sure the final project is exactly what you want. The large number of decision you have to make during the process can be overwhelming, but the builder you hire should be there to provide guidance every step of the way. While some upgrades are not necessary, the following are extras you should purchase when negotiating the contract for your new construction. It will help add value to your home, and that can make it easier to sell in the future. Build smart by using the tips below to help you make the best design choices possible.
Kitchen Upgrades
The kitchen is the heart of every home. You should consider upgrading your counters to a premium surface such as granite, and select stainless steel appliances. Many builders will also give you the option of custom cabinets that will add beauty and value. Make a wise decision and invest extra money into the kitchen of your new construction project.
Flooring Upgrades
When many people build a home, they choose the cheapest flooring available, which is generally carpet. Not only can this drastically affect its value, but carpet does not wear as well as other options, such as hardwood and tile. Upgrade your flooring so you can rest assured that your home will be easy to keep clean and appeal to buyers should you choose to sell it in the future.
Exterior upgrades
While vinyl siding is one of the most popular choices in exterior finishes, it does not add much value to your home. When builders are constructing Custom Homes, they can upgrade the exterior to hardy plank or cement board siding, which will give your home a warm and beautiful appearance and stand up better to the threats of Mother Nature. Make sure your home is as beautiful on the outside as it is on the inside by upgrading the siding used during construction.
