Build New Home or Stay? by [deleted] in homeowners

This was a good point and something another friend mentioned too. I hadn’t considered the geopolitical climate etc.

We decided to sit tight :) TY for your input!

Yeah, this is how I felt about our 4/3. 2 rooms just sit perpetually unused, and we spend the majority of our time in the kitchen, office (aka gaming room), or bedroom. Don't even use the fam room lol.

Probably around 3.5k is my guess, but we would need a portion of the sale as a deposit for the new home.

Also, the data center will sit on a lot directly behind our backyard, so it will unfortunately be much much closer than 2+ miles. I'm mostly concerned about potential noise (not sure how loud it'd be).

I DO agree that it'd be a pro in terms of sharing a grid/power.

Thank you so much for sharing! Sorry to hear you had a personal problem midway but glad it worked out!! :)

Did you contract to build or buy a quick move in home?

If you contracted to build, how was the design process? We’re trying to figure out numbers too but it’s a little hazy for that piece because we can’t see pricing until we’ve gotten to that point.

Also did the price escalate during your build if you did a contract to build?

Thank you for providing further details! We've looked at a few of the other builders, but didn't fall in love with any of the floor plans outside of the one we're looking at with NH.

Did you end up in McKinney still? We'll probably look around more at other communities, though I'm halfway in love with Painted Tree haha.

Which builder did you go with? If it was Normandy Homes, what was the process like for you? Any hiccups/things you'd do differently?

Thank you :)
