What to Know About Resale Homes in Killeen, Texas

Looking for resale homes in Killeen, Texas? Resale homes are the most common type of home purchase. However, many home buyers might wonder whether they should consider purchasing a brand new home.

Currently, about one in four home buyers purchase a new home. But are there any particular advantages of purchasing a new home over a resale?

At Your Home Sold Guaranteed Realty – The Salas Team, we’ve created a quick guide to help home buyers figure out the best fit for them.

What Kind of Home is the Best Fit For You?

Resale homes and new homes each have their pros and cons. Resale homes are generally less expensive. On top of that, they’re located in well-established neighborhoods, which tend to be closer to important places like schools, stores, and local businesses.

On the other hand, new homes are often more expensive. But they make up for it with brand new appliances, more space, and modern energy efficiency.

Ultimately, new homes aren’t necessarily better than resale homes. The right option for you will depend on your needs and financial situation.

When you’re shopping for a home, you may want to look at both new and resale properties before deciding what’s the best fit.

To help you out, our real estate team has created a guide on the “10 Secrets Every New Home Buyer Should Know.” This report will go more in-depth on the advantages and disadvantages of each type of home and what to look for during the home buying process.

The process was somewhat challenging, but Lupita's unwavering support and expertise made all the difference. She was always available to answer my questions, patient, and incredibly helpful. Her positive attitude was infectious, and she wouldn't let me give up even when the going got tough. I highly recommend Lupita and am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work with her.

Selling my home was exceptionally fast and easy. Rob had my property under contract in less than 24 hours! In the end, you would feel at ease with Lupita and Rob being your realtors because they care for clients and go beyond their jobs. Their knowledge and experience are on a high level which reflected on the deals and discounts they were able to get me.
