The problem of today’s market, and why buying New Construction may be the answer you’ve been looking for!

Can buying a New Construction home solve the problems that many buyers are facing in the current housing market? ListMe Realty Group LLC can’t speak for all areas, but they do know clients In Pearland Tx, Friendswood Tx, League City Tx, and the surrounding areas, are still facing many challenges, when trying to find a home. ListMe Realty Group LLC will explain the problems buyers are facing, and offer a simple solution, that should help make the process a little easier.

Problem:

2021 has been a challenging year in the housing market, especially for buyers. The demand for homes has never been higher, and with interest rates still extremely low, one wouldn’t think there would be a major pullback anytime soon. Buyers are flooding into Texas from all over the country, especially California and New York, and they are bringing big money with them too. With this massive influx, it has created an even bigger problem, which is a shortage of homes. When you combine all of these things (demand, shortage, more money, etc.), the prices of homes begin to sky rocket. First, you have to understand anyone moving from California, or New York to Texas, is probably used to paying double the amount of money per square foot for their home. Can you imagine seeing a home twice the size for half the price. With that kind of money, these buyers are willing to pay way over asking price for something they really want, and more than likely, they’ll get it. Sellers know this too, and more than likely wont even consider your offer, unless it starts at asking price, with no contingencies. Meaning, you have to start with your best offer first, and there is still a chance of it going into a multiple offer situation. A multiple offer situation means the sellers are reviewing all offers, and will be asking for the highest, and best offer next. So, what does this do? A multiple offer situation drives the price of the home up, because now, two or more people are competing for the same house. This is exactly what a seller wants, and usually the one with the most money wins.

So, lets do a quick recap of the problems ListMe Realty Group LLC are facing in today market:

  • We have a much higher demand for homes
  • Influx of buyers
  • A shortage of homes
  • Buyers bringing big money from other states
  • Buyers that are willing to pay way over asking price
  • Multiple offer situations
  • Sky Rocketing Home Values
  • Increased chances of losing to a higher bidder
  • Decreased chances of getting the home you want, unless you have the money to pay way over asking price.

Solution:

ListMe Realty Group LLC know you’re  thinking to yourself ” Enough about the negatives, now tell me something positive”. The home buying experience is suppose to be fun, right? Yes it is, and that’s why their suggestion may prevent you from having the same bad experiences some buyers are facing in todays market.

Are you ready for this simple solution…… *drumroll please*…….BUYING A NEW CONSTRUCTION HOME! Yes, it is that simple. The Houston, and surrounding areas are rapidly expanding in order to keep up with the demand, and new construction communities are popping up all over the area. This means there is no shortage of new construction homes at the moment, which is good news for buyers!

This is a great option for those of you that want to sell your home, but are fearful you wont be able to find another home in todays market.

Lets face it, you aren’t listing your home, unless you have a home to live in after the sale of your current home. It’s also a great alternative for first time home buyers, that want to utilize lender incentives, or take advantage of any promotions the home builders are offering.

There are plenty of spec homes (move-in ready) available out there, so you don’t have to wait months for a new build to be completed. You can also have a home built from the ground up, which means you get to customize the home how you want, instead of settling for what the builder chooses in a spec home.

Buying a new construction home is solving many of the challenges they’ve listed above, simply because you aren’t having to compete with other buyers for the same house.  Once you sign the purchase agreement, and handover the earnest money, you’ll be locked into the home, and the current price. This offers you some comfort, and peace of mind knowing you’ll have a home ready for you, or your family when the time comes.

So, what are some of the benefits that new construction homes may offer:

  • Move-in ready spec homes available
  • Build and customize how you want
  • Schedule around your own timing
  • Highly rated energy efficiency
  • Protection of a new home warranty
  • More modern floor plans
  • Designed to fit your needs and style
  • More amenities
  • Lender incentives
  • Builder promotions

Overall ListMe Realty Group LLC have had a much better response from clients, when buying a new construction home. Whether it was a move-in ready new construction home, or a new build, clients have encountered far less issues. Of course this is just ListMe Realty Group LLC opinion. As real estate agents their job is to represent our clients to the best of our abilities, regardless of which type of home they choose to buy. ListMe Realty Group LLC just like to offer a little insight along the way to help our clients make the best educated decision as possible.

How can Energy Audits inform your Net Zero Strategy?

Image
Many organisations are already in the habit of undertaking energy audits to highlight where energy and water efficiencies can be made, save on utility costs, and reduce carbon emissions. Unfortunately, the sad reality of many energy audits and surveys (especially ones that are completed for compliance with ESOS), is that once they are completed, the report is often tucked away into a ‘virtual’ drawer, never to be seen again. But what if there was another use for that forgotten energy audit? Did you know that it could actually be a really useful business tool to help get you started on your net zero journey? To help you harness that data in a practical way, Energy Services Analyst, Rhiannon Farquhar explains what makes energy audits so essential to carbon management and how they can be used to get your business on the path to net zero. So, what are energy audits? To put it simply, an energy audit is an assessment of the energy needs and efficiency of a building (or process), which

Garden Offices | The Ultimate Work from Home Solution for 2021

The Pros and Cons of Working from Home Working from home was not so long ago considered a perk of the job, however, the much-longed-for 30-second commute, for many of us, has finally become a realisation. Prior to the global pandemic, we would have spent 492 days of our lives commuting to and from work and inevitably, Covid-19 has brought about a catalyst of change. Businesses are now seeing the benefits of reducing costs by giving up office spaces, and with commuting now significantly reduced, one of the biggest winners out of this situation is the environment. With this in mind, there’s no doubt that the “new normal” of home working is, quite clearly, here to stay. The general consensus is that working from home is wholly positive and can provide a better work-life balance. Whilst this is true, there is evidence to suggest that this can be quite the opposite, with staff working later than usual as they battle to “switch-off” when their working day is over. So, what’s the solutio

Forgiveness Plan Would Remove One-Third of Students’ Loan Debt

Image
About one in three Idahoans who have federal student-loan debt would see it erased entirely if the Biden administration goes forward with a $10,000 forgiveness plan. That’s according to analysis from the website Student Loan Hero . President Joe Biden is considering eliminating the debt through executive order. Andrew Pentis, a senior writer and certified student loan counselor at Student Loan Hero, said the average monthly loan repayment in Idaho is $274. “Whether you have more or less than $10,000 worth of student loans left to repay, this dose of forgiveness would be hugely helpful, in either getting rid of your debt or shrinking it considerably,” said Pentis. “So certainly, if you’re a borrower in Idaho, you’d be rooting for something like this to happen.” The Trump administration paused federal student loan repayments in March 2020 during the pandemic. Biden extended the pause on his first day in office through at least October 1. Some Democrats want the Biden administration
