People lose their minds for new construction and staging. Overlook tight quarters, tiny garages, no driveway, and thin walls hearing the neighbors. And one can be sure large non stop barking dogs will be living in some of those new construction homes.
I agree 100% about staging, some deceptive. We have a high end builder nearby, building a MASSIVE community. At least trying, starting to see a slow down here in the sense too many new home communities for the amount of buyers.
The model homes are beautiful in every sense of the word, well known higher end regional builder. (Chesapeake Homes) so even without what they did in misleading the public with the models homes by all means they are really nice. I have a sibling most likely will buy one. Deciding between a couple communities. (keep in mind these are not huge homes, the SC/NC coastal area in mostly retirement.
Get this, the model homes have REALLY wonderful decorating and "wall treatments" Every room just the right amount. They have used ShipLap very well placed on certain walls and hallways on the 5 models homes. For those that do not know, Shiplap are (lack of a better word) Roughly 4 inch wide planks of wood nailed in, with half inch spaces covering entire walls. Tastefully painted. Well placed throughout the homes so its not overwhelming. Get this!!!!! The Shiplap does not come with the homes AND IT IS NOT AN OPTION.
Salesman meekly said, "yeah I know" The so called designers wanted it to be known what could be done with the house, however they do not do it, you would have to get your own contractor after closing.
This would be an example, many others on the website, though you wont see Shiplap in them, yet in the model homes there are.
BTW- you are not going to get the home you see anywhere near the starting prices.
