With so many changes happening in the home building market – as well as with the continued historically low mortgage rates – since the COVID-19 pandemic began nearly two years ago, is now a good time to start building a new custom home in Central Florida…and if so, how long could the overall process take?
You could find your answer by checking a few statistics.
For instance, according to the Sun Sentinel, the sales of newly-constructed homes in South Florida increased more than 100% between 2020 and 2021. So, if you’re leaning towards moving forward with a new home build in the Sunshine State, you are in good company!
But there are some other important factors to consider before you forge ahead with your plan. These include:
- Building costs
- Availability of supplies (and the possible alternatives)
- Location (including whether or not the lot is empty or requires the running of water, sewer. electric, and other utility lines)
- The amount and interest rate of the mortgage and construction loan (if applicable)
- The company that you choose to complete the project
Regarding the new home builder that you choose, it is always wise to consider experience and reputation. At WJ Homes, we have more than five decades of real estate development and construction experience – which includes the building of over 3,000 residential homes.
We know how to take your ideas and turn them into the luxury home of your dreams – and we are so confident that you will love your new residence that we offer a 10-year limited warranty so that you have a home that is unique to your needs, as well as peace of mind.
