Considerations for a Modern Home Deisgn

Some 930,000 new houses were sold in America last year, most of them variations on only a few basic themes. There are good reasons for this: Builders figure Colonials, capes and other traditional styles have the broadest market appeal.

With an modern and unusual house design consider the following:

  • Expect to be able to borrow less.
  • Your builder will need some handholding.
  • Be prepared for sticker shock.
  • Have some free time.
  • Size up the neighborhood — and the neighbors.
  • Be creative about resale.

All that said, you may discover that building a unique home breeds a special kind of attachment. If all goes well with your project, selling will be the furthest thing from your mind.
