The Real Estate MSN.com article identifies things to consider when drawing up plans or working with your homebuilder to be sure to avoid post-construction regrets. Some of the items mentioned in the article include:

    • A critical element in energy-efficient building, home insulation must be installed properly. Be sure to inspect all insulation before it is covered up.
    • Electrical conduit for future home automation or energy efficiency upgrades should be run during construction to save expensive retrofits later.
    • Installing laundry facilities close to sleeping areas, or considering adding a second laundry room where convenient may save regrets later about having to travel a distance with laundry.
    • Review the specs, details and efficiency of your new HVAC system during the design phase. The author of the Real Estate MSN.com article shares the following comment, “Heating, ventilation and air conditioning are essential to comfort in your home. If built right the first time, with an eye toward energy-efficiency, it can be a boon to your wallet, as well.”
