Why Buy New? What is it about new construction that makes choosing new instead of used such a smart move? The numerous advantages can be boiled down to three main points:

First:  The most obvious advantage is that your new home is just that. It’s brand new. No one else has cooked in your kitchen, walked on your gleaming floors, hung pictures on your freshly painted walls. Buying a home is the single most important purchase you will make. Your home is more than just a residence. It’s where you’ll make memories, raise a family, and pursue your dreams. Don’t you deserve a home that’s brand new?

Second:  New construction is actually more affordable than comparable used housing. Modern homes are more energy efficient. Plus, today’s builders have access to superior technology and improved building materials. Charles Simms Development is proud to be part of this trend as an Energy Star Partner.

New homes offer the very latest plans and designs. Washington Township, Yankee Trace, and Downtown Dayton—all home to current Simms condo and townhome developments—are the hottest housing locations in the Miami Valley.  If you see your new home as an investment, it only makes sense to buy something that retains maximum market value.

Financing your new home may be more affordable than you think. Every Simms community is FHA and VA approved. That means qualified buyers can take advantage of low downpayment and no downpayment loans. Patterson Place carries a ten year property tax exemption for all new home purchasers. Plus, downpayment grants are available at both Patterson Place and Rubicon Square.

Another economic advantage to new construction is your warranty. When you buy a newly constructed condo or townhome from Simms, your materials and workmanship are covered with a one year warranty from the day you close. All of your gorgeous new appliances, as well as many of your finish materials, are covered with manufacturer’s warranties as well. That translates into potential cost savings, which means peace of mind for you.

Third:  New is all you. Your home should reflect your life and your personal style. The innovation in home design that makes new construction such a smart investment also speaks to modern lifestyles. Open floor plans are ideal for entertaining. Wood decks on living levels offer stunning views and a connection to the outdoors for urban dwellers. Generous patios connect living spaces to golf course and wooded views at The Cottages. Bonus rooms with separate entrances are ideal for home offices, hobbies, or just some extra private space. Twin Lakes West, Patterson Place, and Rubicon Square all feature exposed ceiling trusses and the option for interior brick walls for the latest in modern urban and suburban design. Every new Simms condo and townhome features an attached garage and plenty of closet space.

Mix and match the latest in cabinets, countertops, flooring and appliances.

The best part? You get to create a home that is uniquely you. Think of your new home as a blank canvas. You will choose from an array of gorgeous custom finishes in the perfect combination of colors and textures to fit your style. When it all comes together, you’ll have a brand new home that is one of a kind. Just like you.
