Industry Tips

Buying a Home from the Ground Up

Buying An Unbuilt Home
Today, millions of consumers are investing in homes that are not yet built. Some consumers don't realize, however, that buying a home before it's been built is a lot different from buying an existing home. Weather may delay construction and closing. Mortgage rates could shoot up. The builder could take shortcuts or make mistakes that could later cost you money.
To avoid problems such as these, the Better Business Bureau suggests the following steps:
* Zero in on land plans. How can you find out what you're getting into when you buy the ninth house built in a 200-home development? Ask the town's land planner about current zoning requirements and any proposals that have been submitted to develop nearby land.
* Visit the developer's earlier projects to check out the quality of the community centers, landscaping, and other amenities. Ask residents if the developer delivered what was promised. Check with your BBB for a reliability report

on the developer.
* Check out the homeowners' association. In large metro areas, at least half of new home sales include membership in a homeowners' association, according to the Community Associations Institute. Ask for a copy of the association's rules as soon as you're seriously interested in buying. Find out how much the association fee is.
* Carefully scrutinize the contract, and consider legal review before signing. Make sure any upgrades are included in the contract. Also, add a statement to the contract allowing you to visit the site at several designated times. Keep your deposit check as small as possible. That money is at risk until you and your family move in.
* Inspect the finished product. Before you take delivery of the property, give the new house a top-to-bottom examination yourself and consider bringing along an experienced new-home inspector with you.
* Protect your mortgage rate. As the closing date approaches, you'll want to lock in your interest rate. If delays occur, talk to your lending institution. It may agree to extend your rate lock-in. If that doesn't work, ask the lender to close the loan and hold some of the money in escrow until the appraiser verifies the home is complete.

Storm Damage Repair/Restoration

Storm Damage Repair/Restoration

The following list of tips were created by the BBB, with the input of representatives from the storm damage repair industry, to assist consumers in making wise buying decisions.

1. Be aware that anything you sign is a contract. Read carefully or avoid signing an "estimate" or "authorization" form before you have actually decided to hire a particular contractor. Pay special attention to any details in bold, that are underlined or that you need to initial.

2. Ask your contractor for references. Check with the Better Business Bureau at www.thefirstbbb.org to read a company's reliability report

.

3. Ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance and well as a license

BBB Definition:

license - A permit or accreditation required by the State, Province, County or Municipality where a company is located indicating competence or professional certification that allows the company to provide products or services related to their particular field or industry.

to do work in Minnesota. A contractor should be responsible for obtaining all necessary permits, not you.

4. Consumers may or may not be entitled to a re-inspection if their initial storm damage claim is denied. Factors taken into consideration may include the quality of the original report

and the photos from the original inspection. You may want to ask your contractor to assist in asking for a re-inspection.

5. Some contractors specialize in storm damage repair. Ask your contractor to explain their process for working with insurance companies and to describe what you can expect to experience during the process. For example, the claim may need to change depending on whether or not additional damage is found during the restoration process. Also, checks may be issued in stages by your insurance company.

6. When you need storm damage repair, insurance policies vary. Check with your insurance agent about what is or isn't paid for by insurance with regards to repair or replacement.

7. Local or national companies may both do a fine job with your storm damage repair needs. If you choose to do business with someone who is not local, be sure to understand who will be taking care of any service needs that may arise after the completion of the project.

8. Understand the differences between warranties and guarantees. The manufacturer warranties their products and contractors have warranties on service. Contractors may also offer customer service guarantees. Get copies of any/all warranties and guarantees.

9. Refrain from filing an insurance claim that you do not intend to fix. There could be repercussions from your insurance company when you are being compensated to make certain repairs. Keep in mind that if you hold a mortgage on your home, your mortgage company may have a vested interest in you making the repairs and most mandate you to make the repairs.

10. Some companies list bids on their on contract to do service work on your home and some do not (basing their pricing on insurance allowance). Both are acceptable methods of conducting business.
