Reader"s Digest has the following strategies for consumers who preparing to build homes: First, read the contract, and ensure that your builder is ensured against all types of vandalism -- including fire. After your windows and doors have been installed, give them a once-over and inspect them for defects. Record the manufacturers" warranty and guarantee on each of the products used for the construction of your new home. And file those records away for future reference. Give your local police department a call, and ask them if they"ll make routine visits to your property, inspecting it for any damage. Request that your custom doors and windows not be installed until just before your move-in date.
