While you’re busy doing your due diligence, market forces are working against your economic interests. The home you want is likely to continue increasing in price by thousands of dollars with the next price hike as soon as tomorrow.
If you’re just kicking tires, there is no urgency.
But if you’re serious about ordering your new home, the most important investment you can make is to lock-in today’s price now by placing your 1st deposit.
Your 1st deposit locks in today’s price for 60 days saving you $5,000 to $50,000+ over imminent price increases that can occur overnight as the cost of building materials and labor continue to skyrocket. While you’re finalizing your order with the manufacturer, you can extend your price lock-in to 180 days by placing your 2nd deposit with Escrow.com
Your 1st deposit is fully transferable to any other model from the same manufacturer and to any other manufacturer listed in the ‘With Incentives’ categories on CatalogOfHomes.com
If you’re within the manufacturer’s local service area, a manufacturer rep will visit the site to photograph and assess. Otherwise, we’ll send a professional real estate photographer (up to USD $350 – for remote locations, additional charges may apply and will be passed along to the homebuyer at cost).
The manufacturer will review the data and images collected on the site visit and offer a preliminary feasibility analysis. 90% – 95% of sites are workable, but your 1st deposit is a great investment towards determining if yours is one of the few that isn’t. The analysis includes both the feasibility of the delivery route to the site (and crane swing range, if applicable) and site suitability (terrain, grade, site servicing, etc.)
