Buying a pre-construction home can be an exciting opportunity to own a brand-new property tailored to your needs and preferences. However, this type of purchase comes with considerations and risks that differ from buying an existing home.
From understanding project timelines to navigating the complexities of pricing and financing, there’s much to know before signing the dotted line. Thomas James Homes will help clients make an informed decision and ensure a smooth journey to homeownership.
What is a TJH pre-construction home?
A TJH pre-construction or in-progress home offers an exclusive opportunity to purchase a home before completion. We secure premium home sites, permit them with plans from our curated library, and list them while they are being built. Purchasing during the early stage of construction not only secures a more optimal price but also allows you to be a part of the design process. This lets you personalize parts of your home to match your style and preferences, creating a living space that’s uniquely yours.
What are the advantages of a TJH in-progress home over a completed home?
When you choose to purchase a TJH pre-construction or in-progress home, you’re opening the door to a range of benefits, including:
- Early-stage pricing: Our pre-construction homes are priced below their expected market value upon completion. By investing in a home during its pre-construction phase, you secure a better price.
- Access to off-market homes: We handpick home sites in the most desirable neighborhoods where new construction is hard to find. Purchasing one of our early-stage homes allows you to secure a new home before it becomes available on the market, guaranteeing your place in a highly sought-after neighborhood.
- Design personalization: One of the primary benefits of a TJH pre-construction home is being a part of the design process. Depending on the construction stage, you can pick finishes and select structural upgrades to create a home that’s truly yours.
How do the pricing and design personalization change during the construction stages?
When you choose a TJH pre-construction home, the price you pay is closely tied to its stage of construction. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect:
- Early-stage: The home has just received its permits at this initial phase, and construction is beginning. These homes offer the most significant savings and most options for personalization.
- Mid-stage: During active construction, these homes strike a balance between value and customization. While options for personalization are more limited compared to the initial stages, this phase caters to buyers who want some level of customization and a shorter timeline.
- Late-stage: Homes in the late construction stage are close to completion. This option provides a quicker move-in process, opportunities for some selection of finishes, and better market prices. It’s perfect for buyers looking to settle into their new home soon while adding their personal touch.
