Protecting Your Investment: Warranties and Inspections

A key benefit of new construction is the warranty, but not all warranties are equal. We ensure you understand the terms and duration of your coverage.

Decoding the Structural Warranty

We clarify the difference between the 1-Year Workmanship Warranty and the crucial 10-Year Structural Warranty that covers major load-bearing elements. We review the contract to ensure full warranty protection.

Independent Phased Inspections

We recommend inspections at two key stages: the pre-drywall stage (checking framing and mechanicals) and the final walk-through.

Maximizing Value: Builder Incentives and Tax Benefits

Negotiating Builder Incentives

We save you money by negotiating builder incentives, including closing cost contributions or rate buy-downs. Our knowledge ensures you receive the maximum value package offered.

Fargo’s New Construction Tax Exemption

Fargo construction often qualifies for the Residential New Construction Exemption, exempting the first $150,000 of improvement value for two full tax years.
