If you were to buy a new construction home right now, you’ll be able to take advantage of all the appreciation that it will gain while it’s being built over the next six months to a year. Homes are appreciating at an incredible rate right now. Clients are locking in prices for properties now that might be worth $20,000 more if they were to wait until the home was done being built.
