8 Reasons to purchase a brand new home

Purchasing a home is one of the biggest investments many people will make in their lifetime. So, when the time comes what should you do? Purchase a pre-owned home or invest in a brand new home? After talking with a group of our home owners we compiled a list of the top 8 reasons why they decided to purchase new and you should too.

Get the home you want
a) You can choose a floorplan perfectly tailored to your wants and needs. You get the home you want instead of settling for whatever is available on the market.

b) Besides designing the perfect floorplan for you and your family, you also get to make all your interior selections. You get to choose your cabinet style and colours, countertops, flooring, paint colours and more. Customizing without having to renovate saves you time, money and stress.


Warranty and peace of mind
Everything is brand new. Nearly everything from the major appliances to the windows, to the furnace and roof, is covered under warranty. In addition to manufactures warranties, you also get the piece of mind knowing your new home is protected with the 1,2,5, and 10 year New Home Warranty from the Alberta New Home Warranty Program.


Price Protection Guarantee
When you purchase a Laebon Home you have the extra peace of mind knowing you won’t pay more for your home than the agreed upon purchase price on your sales agreement…If the base price of the home you are building goes up during construction, you won’t pay more. If the base price goes down, we’ll refund you the difference.


Energy Efficiency / Safety
a) There have been many advances in construction and design over the years; everything from the building materials to the heating systems are more energy-efficient, helping you save money and help the environment.

b) You can also look forward to clean indoor air quality in a new home, as you won’t have to deal with any lingering odours or mould from past owners.

c) Today’s construction standards and building codes ensure that homes are built using up-to-date materials and products, and that every aspect of your home is designed to operate with the highest level of safety and effectiveness. It is comforting knowing you have the best protection available to you to ensure you and your family are safe and protected.


Enjoy the latest in technology
New homes come with the latest technology built right in! Items like sophisticated alarm systems, home automation, integrated home entertainment centres, sound surround systems and more are commonly found in new homes. Not to mention modern homes are built with more electrical outlets spaced at more reasonable intervals to safely plug in all your various devices wherever you may conveniently need them.


Pick your home site
a) Park backing, tree backing, pie-shaped and walk-out home sites are just a few of the examples of the type of home sites we have available. When you build with Laebon you can choose the home site you want in one of the many beautiful communities throughout central Alberta that we are currently building in or…If you own an acreage or your own home site, we can build you your dream home there too.

b) One feature that is often overlooked when buying a new home is when you live in a new community all your services are brand new and are underground. You don’t have electrical wires overhead running into your home and your service pipes (water, sewer) and roads are all brand new!


We cover your legal fees
Why pay legal fees? When using Laebon’s trusted legal partner for your new home, we will pay your legal fees! That’s just one less thing to worry about before taking possession of your beautiful new home. Also included in the purchase price of your new home; home site, G.S.T., and a real property report.


Referral Program
Once you purchase a Laebon Home you’re part of the family. We believe in “The Spirit of Community” whereas family helps family, friends help friends and neighbours help neighbours. It is in this spirit that we encourage our homeowners to share their experience. Each referral could earn them $1,000. Just think of what you could do with a $1,000 windfall-maybe a new big screen T.V., mini-vacation, or the perfect piece of artwork for your new home.
