Deciding Between Old And New
Should you build? The dilemma. Constructing a custom home. You choose the tiles. Save on tax. Government money for first buyers. It is exciting. But, you have to wait. A year. Double cost strains the budget. And costs can rise. Landscaping is extra. The finish price is higher.
An existing home is now. Touch it. Trees are grown. Fences are up. You move in in a month. But, it is used. Renovate. Tax is full price. You get their tiles. It needs work.
Your preference. Do you have time? Is modern key? Buy land. Do you want it now? Buy an old home. Both work. You can choose. That is great.
