HOMES IN LOUDOUN COUNTY WITH A 3 CAR GARAGE

HOMES IN LOUDOUN COUNTY WITH A 3 CAR GARAGE are popular with home buyers today.   Families with teens or extended families are quite likely to have more than 2 automobiles and will need or at least want a home with a 3 or more car garage.

PRICE, LOCATION, LOT SIZE.  Of course, price is always the determining factor as well as location, location, location.  So, if the buyers want the convenience of in-town living for transportation and shopping, schools, etc.  the lots will probably be in the 1/2 to 1 acre size.  Why at least 1/2 acre??  Because with the side-load garage, there needs to be a “turnaround”.

WHY AN INDEPENDENT HOME INSPECTION IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR NEW HOME CONSTRUCTION!

WHY AN INDEPENDENT HOME INSPECTION IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR NEW HOME CONSTRUCTION!
What about “soil settlement”??

We know why many new home buyers do not engage the services of a home inspector when purchasing new construction.  Some reasons we’ve heard include:

“The builder’s sales person said I don’t need a home inspector because the county inspects.”
“I shouldn’t have to spend that money.”
“Everything is NEW and has the new home/appliance warranties.”
“I don’t want to spend the money.”

New home buyers don’t always understand that county inspections are primarily for safely and rarely identify poor construction techniques.

Inspired by an article by Jay Markanich  about a recent new construction home inspection.  Slip Joints Below Grade Are Leakers!  

HOME BUYERS SHOULD NOT WAIT FOR THE PRE-SETTLEMENT WALK-THROUGH TO Home Inspections

HAVE THE HOME INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT HOME INSPECTOR

Jay provides an excellent reason for new home buyers to employ the services of a knowledgeable and experienced home inspector during the construction phase of a new home and not wait for the “pre-settlement walk-through“. 

In the case of the defects noted by Jay in his article, by avoiding the pre-drywall inspection, these defects and any defects that could have been hidden by the final layer of soil and final grading and sod or seed.  These defects would NOT have been discovered.

Jay also says, “and if there is soil settlement”.   I would amend that statement to “WHEN THERE IS SOIL SETTLEMENT”.  I view few homes more than a few short years old that do not exhibit some degree of soil settlement. 

FACT:  MANY NEW HOMES ARE CONSTRUCTED ON “FILL”. 
FACT:  FILL WILL SETTLE.
FACT:  IN SOME AREAS, SINK HOLES ARE A HIGH RISK.
FACT:  THE EARTH MOVES!!!

MOUNDING of the home site is popular in many luxury and semi-luxury communities.  See below.

Home on mounded lot

This home site has been “mounded” to about 5 feet above street level.  This grading practice provides a more attractive view of the home from the road and surrounding area.  With the exception of communities with hills or cliffs, in areas of level typography, mounding is very popular.  Builders use the dirt excavated for the basement foundation to mound the home site by 1-6 feet. 

Over the years, I’ve observed many homes where the contiguous surrounding soil has:
SUNK from 1-6 inches,
Pulled away from the foundation leaving gaps of 2-6 inches,
Developed sink holes in close proximity to the structure,

What can a home buyer do to persuade the builder that the final grading is insufficient?? 

USE THE SERVICES OF A COMPETENT AND EXPERIENCED HOME INSPECTOR who will put in writing these serious grading defects. 

While there is no inspection contingency in a new home contract, my experience is that builders are likely to make the corrections if they have a written report. The safest and easiest practice for a new home buyer is to engage a home inspection service in the beginning of the construction process so any defects can be identified while they are easily corrected.
