    Buying a newly constructed home should be an enjoyable experience. Sadly, for most consumers, it’s a nightmare that will stay with them the rest of their life. A common statement made by many new homebuyers is that they will never have another home built for them.

    Here’s 6 things your builder will probably never tell you.

    “We market that our company only uses the finest craftsmen to build our homes when in reality, we use the cheapest trades we can find, which means that many are not skilled and are day laborers.”

    Custom and spec homebuilders bid out the work on your home to the lowest bidder. Kinda like the U.S. Government. There is few Custom builders left who do their own work and have their own crews.

    “I have a binding contract that will prevent you from suing me should you have major defects in your home after you move in. And better yet, there is little you can do to get me to fix it!”

    Read the fine print on your contract. Better yet, have a real estate attorney read it for you and explain to you what legal recourse you have should there be problems after you close. I bet you’ll come out of the attorney’s office amazed at how little rights you have if you sign the builders contract.

    “If you’re really smart, you’ll hire your own third party, code certified, home inspector because the public inspectors and even my own inspectors aren’t here with your best interest at heart!”

    Builders today search out third party inspectors to perform “Quality Assurance” inspections. Problem is, this is just more marketing hype than anything. In most states, these third party inspectors do not have to be licensed to perform “Construction Inspections”. My inspectors and I find a long list of items that these inspectors either miss or ignore on every new home we inspect. Not once have we found a home that the builders inspector found a ma

    The 'S' Corporation is a Dinosaur
    The ‘S’ corporation is a dinosaur. It has been over-rated and overused as a ‘knee-jerk’ default entity choice when in fact its usefulness is limited to specific circumstances. Many well-meaning advisers have for years urged their clients to use the ‘S’ corporation based upon outdated case law or cocktail party conversations that were a poor substitute for continuing education. As a practical matter, the ‘S’ corporation’s utility is severely limited, primarily because it restricts flexibility, ownership choices, tax savings and liability protection.nest craftsmen to build our homes when in reality, we use the cheapest trades we can find, which means that many are not skilled and are day laborers.”

    Appraisal Interviews: Making a Good Appraisals
    Although this performance discussion is an opportunity for you to discuss your employee’s work during a given period of time, it is also, and importantly, a time for you and your employee to check perceptions and reach mutual understandings and agreements about the purposes and priorities of their jobs. This discussion can positively influence your mutual working relationship. For the performance appraisal process to fulfill its purposes, both of you need to actively participate. If you find that your ideas about the job are different from those of your employee

    Information For The Day Trader
    There are two basic types of financial orders. And one of them has established a complete new market opportunity; (day) trading.A market order is an order that has no price condition. This means that if you want to buy a stock on the exchange, you are indifferent about the price you are going to pay. In fact this is only relatively true, because for most stocks the market is liquid. This means that there is a high turnover for this stock and that there is a constant quote for which you are able to trade. There are not too many price differences unless the

    How To Learn Forex The Smart Way
    Many people see the Forex market as a place to invest for the future. Many of these have previously invested in the stock market with mixed results and look to the currency market to increase their wealth. The problem is that most of these people ignored the fundamentals of the stock market, and are behaving the same way with the currency market. If you learn Forex trading properly, you will succeed. Ignoring the fundamentals will bring you the same results you had in the equity markets.If you want to become a successful trader, it is important th

    City and county inspectors are generally about the same as the builders inspector or worse. Many of these inspectors are so piled up with work that they can only spend 15 to 20 minutes in a home. Besides, it is not the City or County’s inspectors job to look for workmanship issues, they are only there looking for health and safety issues and protecting the City and County’s interest. Just like the builders inspectors are there protecting the builders interest, not yours!

    If you don't know a good code certified home inspector ask around or check out the American Society of Home Inspectors at ashi.org

    “My sales people and I can tell you anything we want because we’re not regulated by the State”

    In many states, you’ll find that the sales people for builders are not licensed with the real estate commission like Real Estate Agents are. This lets them tell you whatever they need to so you’ll buy a home from them. I’ve heard just about sales people promising homebuyers just about anything you can imagine they’d buy from their builder. Buyer beware and get them to put it in writing before you sign the contract!

    “Your home is built over a landfill or swamp…maybe both.”

    As prime land is filling up with new homes, real estate developers and builders are turning to sub prime land. Here in my market, we have subdivisions sitting on landfills, swamps and former rice patties. None are prime areas for building a home on.
