Purchasing a new home is a big decision and knowing when it’s the right time to move can be even more difficult. Maybe your family is getting bigger and you need more room to stretch out. Or you’ve always dreamed of that extra space for a craft room and it just feels like the right time. There are plenty of reasons why now might be the perfect time to start your new home journey, even if you plan to build a home from scratch and move in later. Here are a few things to think about as you’re considering buying or building a new home.

Interest Rates

Interest rates can have a huge impact on how much you end up paying for your home in the long run. Right now, interest rates are at a historic low, which can – and should – have an influence on whether you decide to buy now or later. Buying now means locking in that low rate, and potentially saving you hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Agrihood

Agrihoods are getting more and more popular by the minute. Not sure what an agrihood is? An agrihood is a community with an integrated agricultural aspect, like a farm, and usually provides residents with fresh produce. Arden is the first agrihood in south Florida, with a 5-acre working farm right on property. Our Farm Directors manage and maintain the farm on behalf of the residents, so all you have to do is enjoy the fruits of their labor – unless you want to volunteer to get your hands dirty and help out on the farm!

Lifestyle

What do you want from your new home and neighborhood? Location can have a huge impact on the way you live your life. Arden is conveniently located in Palm Beach County, so you have easy access to job opportunities, restaurants, entertainment and A-rated schools, but the community is still tucked away from the congestion of South Florida’s busy cities. That way, you won’t be missing out on any modern conveniences, but you can still enjoy the peace, quiet and nature that comes with small-town living. Plus, with plenty of resort-style amenities and year-round lifestyle programming, there’s so much to do at Arden you don’t even need to leave the community for some fun!
