New Construction Homes VS Resale Homes. What is the best value and where to buy in Florida to get the most for your money. This is Round 14 of Florida Home Showdown New vs Used 2024. I will compare a used home for sale, a used home sold and a new construction home for sale by KB Home in North Florida’s Jacksonville Metro Area. This week I compare a new home in St. Augustine Florida vs used homes in Miami Gardens, Fl. If you are relocating to Florida from out of state or relocating within the state I will show you why you need to look at new homes in North Florida. Always reach out to me before you talk to a builder’s rep. I will set up the appointment to your showing of the community and model homes or move in ready homes available.

Nice comparisons to resale homes… what is the cost to insure this home 8 miles from the beach?
nice tour why do these builders keep making secondary bedrooms small the kids will eventually outgrow these rooms
NOT CB CONSTRUCTION? SMH, LIVE AND LEARN. I’m from S Fla. No way this would pass or be legal.
Someone please explain why anyone would want to live in an HOA?
Tom, "plush" grade carpeting? That's humorous.
Love the sidewalks! Also Gas wow!
It gets pretty cold in the winter tho
I hate how they seemingly put sliding glass doors in everything.
It might be typical, but that garage is way too small.
You didn't need to explain what CDD means in every video.
Show us the attic.
Are the houses block or frame?
New homes in Florida party is over. Don’t buy RUN😮😮😮
That house ugly. It’s a box with rooms. No character.
362 for an HOA for a home is just crazy. Personally wouldn’t want to live in an HOA at any price.
I don't know what I missed but I watched the whole video including the comparions. Compare to what, u didn't sat how much the St Augustine house is. This was a waste of my time, why don't you make the price of the house clear at the beginning of the video???
HOA to high
You are right, my bad. I went back to the timeline. Now that I know your format, I can just skip to the end of the video to get the price and then if it is priced reasonably and of interest to me, I can move to the beginning and watch the house tour. I am looking to buy a house cash but not at these prices. The market is starting to get a huge wakeup call and is about to crash and reset back to sustainable levels. So I will wait😊
I’m looking at this house you’re standing in front of thinking it looks like shit. I see whole neighborhoods of these shelter boxes in south Duval, Clay and St John’s county and am underwhelmed. If you buy one in the new neighborhoods with 2-300 houses in 2 maybe 3 colors you’d better have your GPS working or you will pull in the wrong driveway. What’s with all the hearty board siding? I’m guessing it’s cheaper than brick, less ugly than block and easier to construct than stucco. At least in the 30 to 40 year old subdivisions all the houses on the street aren’t identical. I lived in base housing in the 70’s won’t go back now. Oh and one other thing, these new $500,000 to $850,000 starter homes subdivisions look like the Z parking lot at a Jaguar’s game. Cars everywhere, what an eyesore. Also, just noticed the lack of overhang. If you are looking for shelter from the elements and can afford more than a tent KB Homes sure has the answer for you. How about that chicken wiring in the closets. After you move in and get your first Mint Magazine on page 11 there’s a company that for a reasonable price will rip out that wire shelving and replace it with material that won’t cave in under 40 lbs of weight. Garage is adequate if your 2nd car is a motorcycle.
Location location location
American new construction is such dogshit. Paying 550k for a flimsy wooden box with no character, and you're SLIGHTLY less close to your still very close neighbors. Throw in HOA fees, my goodness are these potential buyers being taken for a ride.
545k to much for me.
KB builder no thanks! Quality and finishes are horrible
OMG ,I grew up @ 1870 NW 187 Ave . I know exactly what house that is that was up for $549,000 in Miami Gardens. I would not buy a house for $50,000 in that neighborhood The bullets are flying The gangs are out of control. My mother-in-law still lives in that neighborhood she's crazy. And I promise you it's not a neighborhood to take a Sunday drive through. Especially for white people. Know your neighborhoods. 🛑🚨🚨🚨🚨🚔
