With interest rates near all-time lows, and home sales on the rise, one would think buyers would be snatching up lots and teardown properties left and right. But they are not. Why?
The realty is many buyers want to build new homes, but hesitate because they know nothing about the building process and it seems intimidating. Once they buy the lot or tear down where do they go from there? How do they find an architect, a builder, get permits, estimate costs, etc? The whole process can be overwhelming and it can discourage them from pulling the trigger.
In addition, the visualization a buyer has when looking at existing properties is not there to create an emotional attachment. In other words, buyers find it difficult to picture their new home complete on the lot. Logic says buy the lot, but the emotional appeal that actually brings them to action is missing and we all know that purchasing a home is a very emotional process for most buyers.
