Is It Smart to Buy a House in a New Development?

Buying a new house in a new development is risky. So what do you need to know before making a down payment on a home in a newly developed community? When you’re shopping for homes and find a newly built house in a brand new development, there are some additional questions you’ll need to ask yourself before making an offer.
