Many first-time home buyers think that their starter home needs to be vastly different from their dream home. Here at Beattie Development, we want you to know that this is not true! Building a new construction home with the exact style and all of the amenities you want is well with-in anyone’s price range. Even if you are under 30 years old and looking to purchase your first home, this still applies to you. How can we promise that? With our newly-released RRB Homes Division! These home start at just $149,000 to put it on your lot. Are you interested? Here’s a few other details you need to know:
#1 Set a realistic budget and stick with it
If this is your first time building a home or even buying a house at all, you must know how important it is to stay within your budget. Be realistic about what you can afford and what you can’t. A lot of people want a pool and spa with a large outdoor living area but cannot afford it right away. This can always be added on after the fact, if it is not able to be done with your initial home budget. The last thing you want is to spend the better part of a year designing and waiting for your dream home to come to fruition, only to be forced to sell it at a loss in just a few years when you realize you can’t keep up with the payments. RRB Homes is extremely affordable, but your budget isn’t unlimited. A game room or third bathroom may sound enticing, but if these extra items put you over budget they should be crossed off your wish list.
#2 It’s crucial to plan ahead
Poor planning and budgets that are too small can lead way to some pretty big mistakes. When you plan on building a new home, you must look at what you need now, next year, and several years down the road. Just a few things to take into consideration would be whether your family be expanding or if you often entertain overnight guests. It would be pretty depressing to grow out of your dream home next year. Take your time and really think about this, being sure to meet with Southwest Florida industry experts. Poor planning and design choices can make your home less than perfect, quickly.
#3 Don’t forget about storage
Unless you have plans to build a very large home, space planning and design is crucial. Ample storage is necessary for daily life, but pay attention to where you place your storage space. Does the master bedroom really need an oversized walk-in closet when the space could potentially be added to your bedroom square footage or the size of the bathroom? If you have Beattie Development design and build a custom closet for you, you won’t need it to be as large. This also applies to kitchen cabinets and bathroom storage.
Obviously, the main benefit of building is the ability to tailor your home to your preferences. Our custom homes are built to meet your personal vision. Whether your taste is to build a home that has a more traditional style or you are seeking a home that is contemporary and sleek in design, Beattie Development takes a consultative approach that allows you to partner with us to create a space you will absolutely love. Each home is unique, so you have total control over color choices and certain finishes. Even better, with the RRB Homes line- all of this is completely affordable as well!
