What Should You Prepare Before Meeting with a Home Builder?

Are you ready to turn your dream home into a reality? Before you sit down with Velocity Homes to discuss your vision, it’s essential to come prepared. Here are some key things to consider to ensure a smooth and productive meeting:

Define Your Budget

First and foremost, take the time to determine your budget for your new home. Are you primarily focused on the total price or the monthly payment? What payment amount are you comfortable with? Understanding your financial parameters will guide our discussions and help us tailor our services to meet your needs.

Get Pre-Qualified with a Lender

Before meeting with Velocity Homes, we recommend getting pre-qualified with a lender. This step not only gives you a clear understanding of your purchasing power but also helps us work towards a price range that aligns with your budget and financial goals.

Assess Your Current Home

Take a critical look at your current living situation. Does your current home meet your family’s needs, or are there areas for improvement? Consider what aspects of your current home you would like to change in a new build, if budget permits.

Identify Your Wish List

Think about your dream home and what features are must-haves versus nice-to-haves. Have you looked at home plans or have specific ideas in mind? Create a wish list outlining your preferences, from layout and design to amenities and finishes.

Distinguish Between Wants and Needs

As you compile your wish list, it’s important to distinguish between wants and needs. While it’s natural to desire all the bells and whistles, prioritizing your essential requirements will help us design a home that meets your practical needs and stays within your budget.

Gather Inspiration

Collect inspiration from magazines, websites, and social media platforms to help articulate your vision to Velocity Homes. Whether it’s a specific architectural style, interior design trend, or outdoor living feature, visual references can be invaluable in conveying your preferences.

Come with Questions

Lastly, don’t hesitate to come prepared with questions for our team. Whether it’s about our building process, timeline, or customization options, we’re here to provide clarity and guidance every step of the way.
