What are the additional costs of new construction?

There are more costs involved in new construction properties than simply the cost of the home and the land. Occasionally properties will need soil and contour testing, site preparation costs, land registration, landscaping, easements and driveways, road closure fees, temporary site requirements and utilities. All of these need to be considered when buying a new construction home. Depending on the property and its current feasibility, you may or may not have any of these hidden costs above. Jumping in a new construction home at the tail end of construction means you won't have to worry about a lot of these hidden fees, however, they will be built into the price of the home.

How long does it take to build a new construction home?

The average amount of time to build a new construction home is about 7 to 8 months. This includes one month for building authorization and permits followed by about 6 to 7 months of actual construction. If you're planning on building a home or buying new construction in Hillsborough County, plan on at least 6 to 9 months before you actually move in.

Of course, every single home, property, land and development is going to be different. While it can get overwhelming the choices available, the best way is to have a new construction Realtor® guiding you through the entire process, giving you updates and educating you on the process.
