    The article identifies the following as essentials:

    • Insulation: Make sure the plans call for the right type of insulation, in the right quantity, installed in the necessary places; then inspect before covering up with finishing material to make sure it is installed as specified.
    • Extra Outlets and Cable: Install outlets and cable as needed for future energy conservation, home entertainment or home automation upgrades.
    • Heating and Cooling Systems: Oversee the specification and construction of the heating and cooling systems to make sure they are sized right, installed correctly and adjusted properly. This is critical to achieve the satisfactory level of comfort you are seeking to find in your new home.  The Real Estate MSN.com article says, “Depending on how your house was built, retrofitting a central heating system could become cost-prohibitive very quickly.”
