If you plan to build a home, you'll be hearing the phrase "building to code" quite often. What does it mean exactly? Every home must be built to code and that's the responsibility of the builder, but code is bare minimum. Just because a building meets code doesn't necessarily mean it's quality construction.

This is probably the most frequently asked question we receive from our customers. Whether they have an existing home or are thinking about buying a lot in a different location, home-owners need to consider several factors before deciding on whether to renovate or build new. There are pros and cons to each, and we suggest families consider them all.   

1. You can avoid brokerage fees by sticking with your existing home. This could be substantial savings.
2. You can stay in place, which is important if you love your neighborhood and schools.
3. Renovating could be cheaper, since renovations as a whole tend to be smaller projects.

Building a home starts with the perfect lot. Or does it? Read on for advice and what to expect when searching for a lot.
