But they’re seeing a surge in demand during the pandemic, The Wall Street Journal reports. We are seeing a surge in demand during the pandemic and it’s not just for the golf even though he outdoor sport takes place in wide open spaces and it can be played while remaining socially distant.

When buying a home in Destin, one of the biggest questions that buyers ask themselves is whether they should purchase a pre-existing house or a new home. Many home buyers tend to gravitate toward resale homes because they believe they are less expensive or easier or faster to buy. However, custom new homes offer tons of advantages, and should always be considered during the homebuying process. Here are a few of the biggest advantages to choosing to build a custom home in Destin. Upgraded Features Whether it’s the floors or the countertops, when looking at a resale home, there’s usually something that doesn’t fit your style or preferences. Buying a custom home allows you to control not only the layout of the home, but also many of its interior features and designs. The ability to choose upgrades in the home ensures that the home matches your style while saving you the hassle of renovations and remodels. Low Maintenance When buying a new home, you want to consider the long-term commitment you are making financially in terms of maintenance and repairs. When purchasing a resale home, you risk running into issues that may not be apparent during inspection but may appear year or so down the road. With new construction, you have the luxury of having everything new and updated, allowing you to enjoy a brand-new home with a warranty to protect you. Energy Efficient and Environmentally Friendly Custom built homes have set the standard for energy efficiency with updated technology. In many resale homes, the technology is often outdated, which can take a toll on the utility usage. When buying a custom home, you can take advantage of new energy efficient technologies such as upgraded insulation, energy efficient windows and the latest energy-efficient construction practices. Incorporating modern upgrades into a custom home can help reduce the home’s carbon footprint and save hundreds of dollars on monthly utility bills. Custom Made The best benefit of buying a custom home is, of course, the fact that is it custom made for you, from the ground up! When buying a custom home, every aspect of it, from the placement on your land to the overall design and the floor plan layout to the wall colors, is chosen according your life and style. The construction of a custom home gives you the opportunity to have a say in the building process, allowing you to create your perfect dream home. Get Pride of Ownership with Destin Custom Home Builders There’s satisfaction in walking into a completed custom home that was specifically built with you in mind. Being able to own a home is one thing but being able to own a home that is 100 percent your vision and creation is an incredible feeling and experience! ​ At Destin Custom Home Builders, we partner with the best craftsmen and tradesmen to build homes for the way people live today.

Over 1.1 million new homes are constructed in the United States annually. For most people, having a home built is something they have dreamed about for years. While building a home is a bit more expensive than buying a pre-existing residence, it is well worth the investment. There is nothing quite as relaxing as hearing the ocean in the distance, which is why many people decide to build their home near the beach. Once you have your new beach home built, you need to start adding to personality to it. Below are some of the must-have items every beach house needs. 1. A Relaxing Outdoor Area to Lounge InSome people get so wrapped up in designing the interior floor plan for their beach home that they forget all about the outside. While having a great looking beach home interior is important, you will also need an inviting outdoor area as well. Ideally, you want this outdoor area to feature plenty of comfortable furniture and décor. Ceiling-mounted swings, patio chairs and tropical plants are some great additions to this area. With a well-put-together outdoor area, you can sit outside and enjoy the sights and sounds of the beach whenever you want. 2. Keep Yourself Busy With Books and GamesMost people use their beach house as a refuge from the modern world. If you have deemed your beach home a technology-free zone, finding ways to entertain yourself may be challenging. Instead of relying on tablets, televisions and cell phones for this entertainment, invest in fun card and board games or interesting books. Having a large selection of books and games is essential when trying to pass the time between surfing, tanning and swimming. Be sure to poll your friends and family members to find out what type of games and books they like. 3. Invest in Quality Area RugsLiving at the beach comes with a variety of advantages. One of the biggest drawbacks of living in a tropical paradise is the amount of sand. This sand will find its way into your home, which can be a bit frustrating. ​ If you are looking for a way to minimize the amount of sweeping and mopping you have to do, invest in a few area rugs. Putting these rugs near the entryways of your new beach house is a good idea. This will help to keep the sand concentrated to one general area, which makes cleaning it up much easier. 4. Comfortable Indoor FurnitureThe main goal you should have when decorating the inside of your beach house is making it comfortable and inviting. Having oversized couches, bean bags and recliners is a great way to increase comfort. You want to make sure that you and your guests are able to lounge around and do nothing in style. By purchasing comfortable furniture, you can make naps after a long day at the beach effortless. Make Waves With Your Beach House DesignThe best part about owning a home is the freedom it provides. You can decorate your beach home however you want. This is why you need to get creative and let parts of your personality shine through in your design.

Living in the beautiful state of Florida is like living in paradise. For many people, Florida is a dream vacation destination filled with hopes of enjoying all that the state has to offer. But for those lucky enough to live in or move to the Sunshine State, Florida is simply “home”. ​ The diversity of the state is a draw for many people looking to plant roots in the Florida soil. Miles of beaches bordering the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico offer plenty of options for sea lovers and boaters. Nationally ranked golf courses coupled with thousands of miles of preserves for outdoor activities are a draw to many who enjoy an active lifestyle. Florida is also known for its abundant wildlife and unique natural resources such as it’s crystal clear springs that manatees call home. Because of the state’s immense popularity among families and retiring adults, home builders have become skilled in meeting and exceeding the expectations of their clients. With an understanding of what makes living in the state special, developers have planned communities that embrace the many reasons home buyers want to live in Florida. Planned communities are not a new concept. Dating back to the 1800’s in Chicago, such communities formed and continue to thrive. Today, developers infuse modern conveniences with natural elements, giving home owners everything on their wish list. New home plans merge effortlessly into the landscape, and provide highly sought-after benefits such as innovations in energy efficiency and cutting edge electronic features. Neighborhoods that boast shopping districts and resort style clubs provide people with the ability to shop where they live, developing connections with the local businesses. In many cases, it is this reason alone that is so attractive to prospective home buyers. The feeling of “community” is enhanced by scheduled events and activities that foster relationships with neighbors and provide attractive entertainment options. Florida boasts some of the best golfing in the nation with many award-winning courses being in planned communities. The ability to golf in your own community offers an array of perks for those who love the sport. And speaking of sport, what better way to enjoy sport fishing and boating than right from your community. But if a simpler, slower pace is desired, there are also smaller communities with new home construction right in the heart of natural preserves. The stylish and innovative concepts of today’s home builders and planned community designers are affording customers countless options. From homes with welcoming front porches along tree lined streets, to community gathering spaces and resort style dining and shopping, Florida’s newest planned communities offer something for everyone.
