Why choose a professional?
"Today's professional new home builders are innovative, forward thinking and customer-oriented," says Lewis Nakatsui, President of the Canadian Home Builders' Association (CHBA). "They are proud of what they do and always look for ways to provide home buyers with a better home and better service."
Few industries demand a broader range of skills and knowledge than residential construction. Canada's home building industry comprises entrepreneurial men and women who know that being a professional builder today means life-long learning. Builders have to stay up-to-date with a constant influx of new technologies and products. They must know about constantly changing trends in design, marketing and financing and keep their fingers on the pulse of the marketplace-what consumers want and expect.
Across the country, small companies constructing 10 or fewer homes a year are the backbone of the industry, while mid- and large-size companies are concentrated primarily in large urban centres. Many companies are family enterprises with husband, wife, sons and daughters running the company togethis.
When you want to buy a new home, make sure that you buy from a professional builder-someone who is in the industry for the long term, who is dedicated to providing you with quality and value, and who is committed to your satisfaction. No matter the size of the company, membership in the CHBA is one of the most important signs that you are dealing with a professional builder.
Remember, in the end, the quality of your new home depends on the quality of your builder. You need to shop as carefully for the builder as you do for your new home.
