Why Buy a New Build:
- Builder Incentives: Many offer lower interest rates, help with closing costs, and often include new appliances.
- Low Maintenance: Everything is brand new, so fewer repairs in our sun, wind, and freeze-prone climate, plus home warranties for repairs for up to 10 years.
- Modern Architecture and Layout: Open floor plans, larger closets, extra bathrooms, eliminate rooms like formal dining and living rooms, energy efficient design, wired for new technologies, more safety features and compliance with updated building codes, possible customization, and new neighborhood amenities.
Why Buy a Resale Home:
- Established Neighborhoods: Larger lots and yards that are already landscaped, mature trees, and a strong sense of community.
- Authentic Charm and Convenience: True adobe, Saltillo tile, Kivas, exposed beams—classic New Mexico style, and often in historic and more convenient central areas rather than out in the suburbs.
- More Value: Resales tend to be less expensive than new properties - more square footage for your money - and are more likely to come complete with items that may cost extra with a new home, such as blinds, upgraded fixtures, and Buyers often have more room for negotiating the price or terms of sale than with new homes.
