How does buying new in Chappelle differ from buying resale?

With a new build you often choose a lot, plan and finishes, and you pay a deposit long before you take possession. With resale you see the finished home and usually close sooner. Each has different risks, and I can walk through them with you.

How much down payment do I need?

The minimum is 5% on the first $500,000 and 10% on the portion above that, up to $1.5 million, and 20% for homes of $1.5 million or more.
