The Top 6 Myths of New Construction Homes

Now is the time to buy a new home build in Cheyenne!

When it comes to buying a new home, homebuyers have a few different options, including investing in a new custom home build, a new home build in which they choose from a variety of floor plans, and buying an older home. 

If you’re interested in buying a new home and are trying to decide between whether to buy an older home or a new build, Homes By Guardian in Cheyenne can help set your mind at ease by dispelling some of the myths surrounding a new home build. 

Homes By Guardian creates new and thriving living communities in Cheyenne. Bustling with brand new single-family homes including Whitney Ranch and Westedt Meadows, we have something to help establish your roots in Wyoming. Learn more about the myths of new construction homes in today’s post. 

Have You Thought About These New Construction Home Myths?

Buying a newly built home has so many benefits such as no closing costs or fun upgrades you get to choose, but that’s a post for another day! Instead, we’d like to talk about the myths about buying new construction, to help you narrow down your house search!

Myth #1: Unmet Timelines

One of the most common myths is that your home won’t be finished within the expected timeframe. This can be extremely frustrating for potential home buyers, because there are a lot of moving parts on your end, before your home is finished, that you need to tie up. If your home takes longer than expected, you have to reconfigure your entire timeline as well. 

Homes By Guardian gets this! Our priority is building a quality home that’s available to you within the expected timeline. Because our home building process is streamlined, we’ll have you move-in ready in no time. And while we don’t know how other companies do it, we give you a realistic expectation on our construction window that we always deliver on. 

Myth #2: Poorly Built Homes

There is a misconception that new home builds are poorly built, and this is nothing but a myth. Homes By Guardian has a commitment to our home buyers that is more than just a home that looks nice. 

Yes, we absolutely create the best floor plans and provide the leading finishes, but a home’s structural integrity always comes first — it’s about creating a solid foundation and working upward from there. 

Myth #3: New Construction is More Expensive

New home builds can actually be less expensive than an older home. Their upfront cost might be higher, but you have to consider that you won’t be paying closing costs and you’ll likely save a good deal of money on utilities because new construction uses energy-efficient materials.

New construction also comes with a variety of warranties, which can save you money on maintenance and replacement if done within the warrantied timeframe. 

Myth #4: There Are Too Many Choices

When you work with a builder such as Homes By Guardian you will have to make choices on the kind of appliances and finishes you like, but it’s not overwhelming. For many homebuyers, this is the most fun part of buying a home — customizing colors, materials, and finishes that reflect your personal style. 

Myth #5: You’re Too Far From Downtown Cheyenne

Many times, new communities are built on the edge of town, isolated from the heartbeat of the city. This is not true of the Homes By Guardian living communities! 

Both Whitney Ranch and Westedt are centrally located near a variety of schools, open spaces, coffee shops, grocery stores, gyms, and other conveniences, so you never feel too far from what makes Cheyenne so great!

Myth #6: Everything is Cookie Cutter

Homes By Guardian is intentional and mindful in the new construction homes we offer, and we make it a point to do the uncommon. Our living communities take in the natural landscape and overarching environment to create a set of homes that blend, but aren’t cookie cutter.

We grow communities and create streetscapes that are individual, yet all fit together as a piece to a larger community. From sweeping front porches, one-of-a-kind views, and tree-lined streets, your perfect new home build is waiting!
