Mark Downing, CornerStone Homes SiteMany people are realizing the benefits of buying a new home over a short sale or a foreclosure. So we decided to reach out to one of our many builder friends – Mark Downing with CornerStone Homes – to find out the top 3 questions he is getting about new houses in Jacksonville, FL today. Here are the top 3 buyer questions along with Mark’s answers:
 
1. How much does it cost to build per square foot?
 
There are many variables to the per square foot cost, but we generally start at $60 per foot. However, it does vary by plan, county and the personal choices you make for your finishes.
 
2. What incentives do you offer?
 
Unlike a national builder, we don’t have one program for every buyer. We work with our buyers to tailor a program that fits your needs.  That may include a closing cost contribution, a price reduction or a design center option.
 
3. How long does it take to build a home?
 
After we get the permit, we can build your home in 90 to 120 days – depending on size. However, it often takes 60 – 100 days before we get a permit depending on the number of structural changes you make, a community’s ARC approvals, truss and structural engineering, and which county your home is in.
 
If you are interested in learning more about the differences between new construction and short sales or foreclosure – or if you have other questions you would like to ask a builder, please contact any Davidson agent!
