From what I’ve seen on this topic, admittedly not an expert in any way, there’s a huge issue on quality on newly built homes. So severe in fact that new homes that should be equivalent to already built homes are 5-10% cheaper simply because they are new. Basically new homes are built cheap and shit>people get ripped off>people complain>slowly it becomes generally known that new houses will fall apart within 5-10 years regardless of your efforts>demand craters>companies stop or scale back building due to low demand (that they created).
We just can’t do fucking anything right in America lmfao
