As the local housing market still may feel bit unnerving for some – with current interest rates levels and sustained lower resale inventory, new homes available from award-winning homebuilders in Rancho Sahuarita can still make the dream of homeownership a reality for those who seek it.
While buyers may remain uncertain of the financial commitment and whether the timing is right, there are still many reasons why buyers may want to get into a home sooner rather than later.
In Rancho Sahuarita, resale home inventory has increased by 20% year over year, yet the average sales price of a resale home still increased by nearly 4%. Meanwhile in 2024, the average sales price of a new home was close to $360,000, while the average sales price for an existing home was closer to $350,000, representing just a 3% difference. This, coupled with special financing options* for qualified buyers offered by many of the new home builders to help make homes attainable, can often make them an even more attractive option for buyers in the market.
Here are a few more reminders of why 2025 is the right time to buy.
Investment in the Future
Owning a home is a sound investment in the future. Historically, real estate in general has had stable growth in value over the long term. While dips in the housing market through tough economic times can at times cause a home to lose value, often the value is regained as the market improves and healthy conditions return.
With each payment on a mortgage and as your home increases in value, equity increases, setting the stage for financial stability. Additionally, the opportunity to refinance as rates adjust down the road remains for many, further enhancing the overall financial benefits of buying.
Convenience of Quick-Move-Ins and the Freedom of Choice
Many homebuilders are offering quick-move-in options in their neighborhoods, allowing buyers the opportunity to get into a brand-new home sooner. And while this is a great option for some buyers, others may still desire the customization that comes with a new home built from the ground up. For these buyers, certain builders still offer buyers the choice to make selections from a wide range of design choices that fit their style and their budget.
Between the two new neighborhoods of Entrada Del Pueblo and Entrada La Coraza, Rancho Sahuarita currently offers new homes from 5 different builders, together offering 40 innovative floorplans to choose from ranging from 1289 to 2694 square feet, with 3 to 4+ bedroom options. A third new neighborhood, Entrada Del Toro, will open in the coming months, adding further to the choices available for buyers to choose room.
New Homes Come with Energy Efficiency and Lack the Need for Repairs
New homes are also more energy efficient, with homebuilders in the community offering various features that improve air quality, reduce energy usage and more.
While resale homes may need repairs and upgrades, leading to increases in cost for owners, new homes offer comfort to buyers seeking to avoid those costs, and instead focus on finding the home that suits their preferences.
Being armed with the right tools and information can help make the decision to purchase easier and lead to greater peace of mind. The expert sales teams at each builder are available and ready with information and resources that can help buyers make the best choice for their unique situation.
