Display homes, sometimes called project or ‘spec' homes, are designed and built by project builders. Because of the high volume of homes they build, they can offer very reasonable prices compared, say, to custom built homes.
It is a good idea to look at a number of homes by various builders before you
narrow your choice down to three or four homes. Once you've done that, get out the floor plans for the homes and compare room sizes to get a feel for whether your furniture and lifestyle will suit the home. Imagine the home in the colours you would choose, and try to see past the furniture and furnishings in the display home you viewed.
Next, find out exactly what is included in the home and determine whether the building company will allow any changes to the plan, fixtures or building materials. Obtain a written quotation from the builder so
that you are ready to negotiate with your bank or loan provider.
The three or four builders you have chosen should now be asked to quote on building the house on your block of land. This is important, because the price tag of display homes does not include site costs.
