We toured the property and saw a few new homes. My question is...We would like a newer home but not necessarily new construction. Is there a cost savings by buying a home that is two or three years old? Are there many newer homes for resale?
Thanks!

Buying a resale you may see a lower bond because the owner has paid it off or paid it down. HOwever as TV builds out (our sales person said 3 years now) home values will be going up which means resales will go up.
We looked at both and caught a new home in an area they were closing out
So price versus what we got seemed like a very good deal. My biggest suggestion is to spend some time looking for homes and do not jump. Have friends who regretted buying in 3 days because the home is too small for them. We came down in February decided we wanted to get more familiar with the area after looking at homes. Leased a property and after 6 months have found our home.
