tips for buying luxury real estateCamelot Homes is one of the oldest, family-owned home builders in Arizona. With more than 45 years’ experience building thousands of homes in Arizona’s finest communities, we have established an unparalleled tradition of home building pride and excellence. We enjoy helping homeowners find and create their dream luxury home.

Here are six expert tips for finding and buying a luxury home:

1. Visit in Person

Sometimes, the home buying process has to be conducted long distance via phone and the internet. Fortunately, today’s technology makes this much easier than ever before. But despite this, it is always best to visit the property in person. Pictures and 3-D video tours provide great detail, but you will get a better feel for the space in person. Even if you are building a new luxury home, be sure to take a tour of a model when possible.

2. Make Choices Based on Your Lifestyle

Buying and building a luxury home is more than just the construction of a house. Luxury homes in planned communities like our Camelot Homes neighborhoods offer the opportunity for spectacular scenic views close to a variety of amenities like shopping, dining and entertainment. When buying a luxury home, carefully consider the location and the neighborhood that best fits your lifestyle.

3. Personalize with Customization

Building a new home allows for the choice of floor plans, materials and finishes. It is also a unique opportunity to create the perfect home to fit your family’s needs and desires. You will choose items like flooring, cabinetry, countertops, sinks, interior doors, fireplaces, electrical options and more. At Camelot Homes, we offer a complete design process where you work one-on-one with an expert to create your dream home.

4. Make a List of Must-Haves

Your list of must-haves should be completed before you begin to search for or build your luxury home. Have a clear idea of how many bedrooms and bathrooms you need and what size kitchen is desired. These are basic starting points. Other must-haves will vary, but may include things like master en suite with fireplace or enclosed sunroom with outdoor patio.

5. Explore the Landscape

When buying any home, the outdoor living space must be considered. Is it already landscaped? What additional work needs to be done? Is it large enough for your outdoor kitchen? Your luxury home’s exterior must also fit all of your needs, so be sure to examine it thoroughly.

6. Have Patience

Finding or building the perfect luxury home takes time and a lot of hard work. It also takes patience. Many decisions need to be made, and sometimes timelines need to be adjusted. Despite this, be confident that the end product will be a beautiful house you and your family will call home.
