What to Consider When Searching for a Home Lot 

Thursday, February 19th, 2015

As towns become more populated, it gets difficult to find your own spot of land that is untouched. Many purchase pre-constructed homes; already lived-in homes. This may save money but takes away from the idea of building your dream home. Renovations to pre-existing homes can be costly, so sometimes it is best to start fresh if you want specific elements in your home. Searching for a home lot can be a daunting task, so here are our tips for you to keep in mind.

Make sure you know the boundaries of the home lot.

A title company will be able to determine this for you and grant you legitimate rights to the property. This way, you will know how large of a yard you will have after the house is built. Worrying about neighbors will not be an issue if you own the rights to the plot of land. Fall and winter (before it snows) are good times to look at purchasing a home lot because you will be able to see through any trees obstructing your view. This way, you can see how close you are to any other properties. Another benefit to taking a look around the property is to see what you need to remove in order to build a home and possibly a pool and other outdoor living structures in the backyard. If there are a lot of trees, you will have to factor that into your budget.

Find out any and all information about your home lot.

In addition to figuring out the title deed, look up water and sewer codes as well as zoning restrictions. This includes flood-zone lines and wetland areas – you could wind up living near a swamp which would be detrimental to your lawn. Also, some Homeowner’s Associations have certain rules about building in the neighborhood. For example, make sure that you are allowed to have a balcony overtop of the front porch, if that is what you were looking for.

Include the home lot purchase in your overall budget.

Many jump headfirst into the process of building a custom home. They do not realize that many times, a lot needs to be purchased before any work can happen. Factoring in excess brush and forestation to be removed from the property so that building can start is also necessary. Make sure power and sewer lines are able to be put in. You may need a loan to purchase the land – and many lending companies require a 50% or more down-payment.

In order to help you with your research, here are a few tips on what to look for in a home site, and resources to help you find the right home site in Maryland.

What to Look for in a Home Site

The Lay of the Land

How does the land on the site match what you’re looking for? Will it be difficult to build on this site? Is the topography conducive to the ideas you had in mind for outdoor living?

Available Utilities

How accessible are local utilities like gas, electric, and water? If there’s existing infrastructure in place, all the better. If not, that doesn’t mean these utilities can’t be delivered, but it will cost extra to do so.

Location

What kind of area is the site in? Does the neighborhood match what you’re looking for? How close are local amenities and schools? What will the commute to work be like?

Permits

Some home sites in Maryland may require different permitting or public facilities fees, which can add or subtract from the desirability of the lot.

Budget

At the end of the day, the deciding factor will be your budget. Set a level you’re comfortable with for your budget.

What to Consider Before Buying a Home Site in Maryland

Thursday, October 2nd, 2014

Have you recently found a home site in Maryland that you’re considering buying? Before you do, read through our list of things to consider before you sign the papers. And if you haven’t found the home site you’re looking for, read our blog on how lot search assistance in Maryland can help you find the perfect site for your new home.

What to Consider Before Buying a Home Site in Maryland

What is the availability of utilities?

Are utilities such as gas, electric, and water easily accessible? If not, extra costs will be incurred in the process of bringing them out to your new home site in Maryland. Not that this should dissuade you from making the purchase if you’re willing to pay for bringing utilities to the site, but it’s important to factor this into your overall decision.

Are there any permitting or public fees concerns?

Some lots may require an extraordinary permit or public facilities fees. These in turn can affect the timing and cost of the building process.

How does the topography match with my wants and needs?

It’s important to consider the topography of your new home site in terms of your wants and needs for your home. Will it meet the needs of your outdoor living goals? Will you be able to install that deck, outdoor kitchen, or pool you want. Does the sun move across the property in a way that promotes natural lighting. Does the setting match up with the architecture and style I have in mind for the home? All of these are important questions to consider.
