🏡 Why You MUST Get a Home Inspection on a New Build | Florida Buyers Beware
Buying a brand-new home sounds simple…
New equals perfect, right?
Not exactly.
In this video, Team Heather & Danielle break down the truth about new construction homes — and why skipping a home inspection could cost you tens of thousands of dollars down the road.
We’re covering what buyers are rarely told, including:
✅ Why new homes are built by 25–40 rotating subcontractors — not one builder
âś… How rushed construction timelines can trap moisture inside your walls
✅ What builder warranties actually cover (and what they don’t)
âś… Real issues inspectors find in brand-new homes
âś… The 4 critical inspections every new-build buyer should get
✅ Why builders don’t love inspections — and why that matters to you
âś… The true financial risk of skipping inspections
âś… Why Florida homes (especially in St. Johns County) are at higher risk for moisture, mold, and long-term damage
From slab inspections and pre-drywall walkthroughs to 11-month warranty reviews, we explain exactly how to protect yourself before closing — and why relying solely on a city inspection isn’t enough.
💡 The house may be new — but the moisture could already be old.
If you’re building or buying new construction in Florida, this is a must-watch before you sign anything.
