New Construction and Working With Builders

About this course

Buying a newly built home is different from buying an existing one, and the process rewards buyers who understand how builders work. This course compares custom builders with production builders so you can choose the path that fits your budget and your need for control. You will follow the construction process step by step, from permits and foundations to framing, rough ins, and finishes, and learn what each stage means for your timeline. The second module covers builder contracts, allowances, and the change orders that quietly inflate costs, plus the inspections and warranties that protect you after closing. By the end you will be ready to negotiate with builders and manage your build with confidence.
