What You’ll Learn:
🏠 Pros & Cons: We’ll explore the advantages and disadvantages of both new construction and existing homes. Learn about customization options, energy efficiency, and warranties with new builds, versus the charm, established neighborhoods, and potentially lower costs of existing homes.
📊 Costs & Financing: We’ll dive into the financial aspects of each choice, including purchase prices, maintenance costs, and potential resale value. Discover how builder incentives for new construction might compare to the potential for negotiating a lower price on an existing home.
📅 Timeline & Process: Understand the timelines involved in each scenario-whether you’re ready to move in immediately with an existing home or prefer to wait for a custom-built home that meets your exact specifications.
💡 Lifestyle Considerations: We’ll discuss how your lifestyle and long-term goals can impact your decision. Whether you prioritize modern amenities or prefer the character of an older home in a mature neighborhood, this video will help you weigh the options.
🔑 Hidden Factors: From HOA rules in new developments to potential renovation needs in older homes, we’ll cover some often-overlooked aspects that could sway your decision.

    I live in Utah and can personally share that our groceries are extremely expensive, the quality of our produce is poor (often sold moldy in the store), and many organic and gluten free items are not available. Just today I spent $150 for 2 yellow squash, 6 large bottles of water, a small container of salsa, and 4 cans of soup. This was just a quick "run in/run out" since I do prefer to buy my water in glass bottles and I was in the area of the only store in town who has glass bottled water. Utah is advertised as such a desirable state to live in, but nothing could be farther from the truth. It is a Buyer''s Beware state and builders do not have to honor any warranty on a new construction home. I have only been here for 3.5 years and I am getting ready to sell my home that was new construction when i bought it. Oh it looked beautiful, but literally it is falling apart. I am headed back to the South where integrity is still alive! Thank you for posting this video.

    I'm currently living in California. Greenville was on my list of areas to check out out east. I'm in Greenville right now. In my opinion, Greenville is really for the younger set with its many brand new condominiums and outdoor friendly activities, mainly, beautiful hiking trails. Nothing wrong with that, and kudos to the city planners, but, in my opinion, it really isn't a place to retire to.

      Yes, so too is Asheville's city limits. They are larger than Greenville's. I've spent time in both cities and there is no comparison in population and economic impact. Greenville is simply a level or two higher than Asheville. You short the viewer of these videos by not pointing out this drastic difference in population. Again, this matters in terms of traffic, economic impact, and crime.
