If you are planning to build a new home, then one of the first things you will need to do is find the right team of builders. Our team at DC1 Homes has been proudly serving Central Florida for many years, and you can count on us to make your new build a success. In this article, we will go over a few red flags to watch out for when choosing new home builders.

Red Flags to Avoid When Choosing New Home Builders

  • Lack of Transparency – When choosing new home builders for your project, make sure to ask about their previous work history. A reputable company will be transparent about their past projects and experience, so if the builders seem cagey about this topic, we encourage you to search elsewhere. You should also move on to a different candidate if their account of their history seems confusing or doesn’t add up.
  • No Community Connection – Our team is very proud of our history of serving the Central Florida community, and we believe our connection to this area makes us great at our work. We consider it a red flag for new home builders to lack the same kind of connection to the areas they are working in. Builders who aren’t connected to your area will have a harder time sourcing labor and supplies, and they won’t be as invested in maintaining their reputation through quality work.
  • High-Pressure Tactics – A third red flag to watch out for when choosing new home builders is the use of high-pressure sales tactics. One common example of such tactics is offering you a great deal for a “limited time,” which puts pressure on you to sign a contract quickly.
