the limiting factor on new homes is location. If you have no problem with that, new is a great way to go. I think they're a bit less expensive (strangely) than pre-owned.

new home warranty is 1-year, soup to nuts, everything.
2 or more years on things like the HVAC, structure, etc, but as said above, let the sales rep give details.

I bought new, and happy I did, if looking again, I'd certainly look at preowned too though. good luck
