Believe me once you have lived in a new home you will never downgrade to an existing home willingly again. The most common comment we get from Clients who have moved into a new home for the first time is “it seems like the heating is on as the house is so constantly warm”
You see living in an older home that has single glazing, limited insulation and rooms usually not oriented to allow the suns passive solar gain into the home is only a couple of steps up from living in a tent. On freezing days it is like a fridge and hot days like a glass house as the home over heats.
A common misconception is that it is more expensive to build new than it is to buy an existing home. This is not necessarily the case, they can be very comparable in price and
in some locations it can actually be cheaper to bui
ld than buy existing. The resultant new home is energy efficient, practical to live in and will have low maintenance for many years to come. The existing dwelling in contrast will probably require work, be inefficient and not as comfortable to live in.
