New Home Search Checklist

At Brown Haven Homes, we believe home buying should be easy, fun, and reasonable.

To make it easier for our home shoppers, we have made a checklist of what a new home buyer needs to consider when trying to build their new home.

ꗃ Time

You’ve just bought your house, and you want to settle in now; the problem is it isn’t built yet. With new homes, timing is always the main thought of buyers. When purchasing your new home, make sure to be upfront with your contractor so you know when you can leave your current home with enough time to properly move into your new house. It’s not fun to be rushed or worse: not have a home to move into.

At Brown Haven, we make it easy. After we’ve reviewed the site of your new home, you’ve picked out your desired plan and finishes, double-checked those selections and we’ve set the proper build expectations, we will break ground on your new home. Brown Haven will typically break ground on your new home in 10-15 business days from the completion of the Pre-Construction Meeting. Once it’s time to build your new home, it takes about 6-8 months for your new home to be completed - weather permitting.

ꗃ Money

For a lot of buyers, pricing can be a concern. New homes can have a reputation of being more expensive than already built homes, however at Brown Haven Homes we are changing that stigma.

Now, you can get quality without the massive price tag.

At Brown Haven Homes, we offer two levels that provide you with your preferred starting point. We believe in being as transparent as possible, which is why we provide a side-by-side comparison of what is included in each level. We also provide a price promise once the contract is signed!

ꗃ Where

It’s all about location, location, location. We build in a multitude of counties in Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

Check out where you can live by visiting one of our convenient Design Studios locations:

ꗃ Design

Looking at floor plans can be overwhelming. However, it is the most important part of the home buying experience. By choosing your own floor plan, you are choosing the way you want to live in your own home. Floor plans designate if you want to feel cozy or want to feel like you are in an open and airy place. There are floor plans for people who want to host parties, people who have small get-togethers and everything in between.

Whatever the style you want, Brown Haven has customizable floor plans for any home shopper’s preferred style. The New Home Specialists in our Design Studios will help guide you to the floor plan that is best for your living style.

ꗃ Warranty

Home warranties help keep you and your home protected. It’s very important to do research on what kind of coverage you can get.

At Brown Haven Homes, you are covered with a whole-home warranty for 1 year after you receive your Certificate of Occupancy. You are also covered for another 7 years structurally, and the majority of products we use to build your home carry warranties, as well. We want you to feel worry-free when purchasing your new home, that’s why we provide some of the best warranty services.

Keep these points in your mind the next time you shop for a new home. At Brown Haven Homes, we want to be fully transparent with our home buyers so they are able to feel comfortable and excited when starting this new chapter in your life.

We look forward to building your dream home soon!
