Why Consider a Spec Home

Florida’s east coast beach real estate is on fire! As quickly as homes hit the market, they are snatched up and closing in mere days. For cash on site, snowbirds and transplants are flocking to the sunny beaches of Palm Beach Gardens to find their luxury home. If you are new to the area or you have sold your older home to upgrade to a new build, a spec home offers you the quick timeline and the convenience of move-in-ready completed homes.

Purchasing directly from the builder or developer allows you to skip the real estate agent and reduce your closing costs significantly. You get the added benefit of years worth of home buying experience applied to the construction details of your home.

As many locals know, buying and flipping houses is a popular gig in Florida — buying shotty homes cheaply or on foreclosure, applying some sweat equity, and turning a large profit is how many contractors make their money. Purchasing a new spec home helps you reduce your risk by purchasing a new home where you are the first to use appliances and you’ve inspected the integrity of walls, floors, and the roof before you move in. When you partner with Banyan Construction Group, you can rest assured your risk is low and your luxury home will provide you years of comfort.

Save Big On Your New Home: What You Need to Know About Optimizing Spec Home Buys

Spec homes are a great investment opportunity, allowing you to benefit from decades worth of building experience with the top requested amenities already included. While these homes are only “semi-custom” in terms of picking floor plans, fixtures, and material packages, they are move-in ready, high-quality, and you can always add to what exists to make it uniquely you. To help you get the biggest bang for your buck, you’ll want to consider some of these things that affect the price of new spec homes.

Location of the home,
Cost and size of the land/plot,
Size of the home,
Cost/ quality of building materials, and
Labor costs.

When you purchase a new spec home, you gain the benefit of buying from the builder or the property management company, rather than from a homeowner. You can get creative with negotiations and the warranties and guarantees are often much better than traditional home warranties.

Whether you are considering purchasing a base model or the Taj Mahal of spec homes in your new neighborhood, some things to contemplate including or upgrading include:

Kitchen — one of the most used spaces in your home, you’ll likely regret cutting cost and corners if you don’t optimize countertops, cabinetry, and kitchen appliances
Basement — even if you don’t need the space now, consider finishing the basement
Plumbing — evaluate the potential for future bathrooms or fixtures. It’s easier to create the space once the plumbing exists.
Lighting — windows, fixtures, etc.
Energy-Saving Options — windows, appliances, insulation, finished garage, etc.
Storage — always opt for more!

When you optimize your spec home before it’s built, you can save big and prevent remodels or renovations soon after purchase. Work with your general contractor to get what you want before the project is complete and you’ll move in happy.

Spec Homes Frequently Asked Questions

Additions are a great option when you need more space and aren’t ready to leave your current home. You can have the best of both worlds when you partner with a qualified builder to simply build an addition.

A dormer is a modification to a roof pitch that creates a room. It may be a full or partial dormer and includes creating a room out of a crawl space or attic.

Not always, but typically, yes. Structural modifications compromise the current integrity of your home and require the construction to meet safety regulations.

We do not recommend that you make these types of modifications yourself. Some walls are purely cosmetic while other, load-bearing walls are critical to the structural integrity of your home.

It depends on the addition. For the most part, yes. They generally add livable square footage, improve function, and offer features not found in other homes that are a great selling point for resale when the time comes.

Garages add function to your home and offer protection to vehicles or whatever is stored within. This helps to improve your home’s value in terms of comfort, convenience, and worth.

Building codes are established to protect homeowners from poor structural work. Subpar structural remodeling puts the homeowner at risk of harm to people and property when structures fall down or collapse.

Yes! Since our spec homes aren’t all tract homes, and at Banyan Construction Group, we are contractors first, we can meet almost any request you have. Simply meet with our contractors to build your plan.

Modular, or pre-fab (pre-fabricated), homes, are those where the pieces are made off-site in a climate-controlled environment and transported to the home’s lot for assembly. Spec homes may use modular pieces but are generally built using traditional construction methods.

A spec home is built based on “speculation” that someone will buy it. Even if you get to customize some features, you are buying a home, not constructing it, so you’ll finance it the same way you would if the house already existed.

Discuss your specific preferences with your builder. Usually, you are not able to bring your own materials, but we can work with you to meet your wishes and design plans. For some things, like butcher blocks or specialty sinks and tubs, we may be able to use and install — let’s discuss it!
