Frequently Asked Questions

Discover Our Difference

What is included in the purchase price of the home?

The purchase price includes the home, standard features, and the homesite. It also covers design selections outlined in your specific home package. Upgrades, lot premiums, and optional features may be additional depending on the property.

    Do you offer incentives or rate buy-down options?

    Yes. We frequently offer lender and builder incentives, including interest rate buy-down options and closing cost assistance through our preferred lenders. Incentives vary by community and availability, so we recommend connecting with our sales team for current offerings.

      What type of warranty comes with the home?

      Every Cedar & Sage home includes a 1-Year Limited Builder Warranty covering non- cosmetic defects in materials and workmanship. Many components are also covered under manufacturer warranties, and our team assists in coordinating those as needed.

        Can I customize my home?

        Customization options depend on the stage of construction. Early in the build process, buyers may have the ability to select finishes and upgrades. For completed or near- complete homes, selections are pre-determined to ensure timely delivery.

          How long does it take to build a home?

          Build timelines vary based on the home type, weather conditions, and construction stage at the time of purchase. On average, new construction can take several months, but we also offer move-in-ready homes for quicker timelines.

            What is the process to reserve or purchase a home?

            The process typically includes selecting your home, submitting a purchase agreement, and providing earnest money. From there, we guide you through financing, construction updates, and closing.

              Do I need to use your preferred lender?

              You are not required to use our preferred lender; however, doing so often provides access to exclusive incentives, streamlined communication, and a smoother closing
              process.

                What are the closing costs?

                Closing costs vary depending on the loan type and purchase price but typically include lender fees, title and escrow fees, prepaid taxes, and insurance. Our preferred lenders can provide a detailed estimate early in the process.

                  Will there be a walkthrough before closing?

                  Yes. You will have a final walkthrough prior to closing to ensure the home meets expectations. We also offer additional warranty walkthroughs at approximately 60 days and 11 months after closing.

                    What is covered by the HOA?

                    HOA coverage varies by community but may include common area maintenance, amenities (such as pools, clubhouses, or landscaping), and sometimes exterior maintenance. Each development has specific CC&Rs outlining details.

                      Are your homes energy efficient?

                      Yes. Our homes are built with modern construction standards, energy-efficient systems, and materials designed to improve comfort and reduce utility costs.

                        Can I use my own real estate agent?

                        Absolutely. We welcome outside agents and work collaboratively to ensure a smooth experience for all parties.

                          What happens if I find an issue after closing?

                          You can submit a warranty request during your first year of ownership. Our team will review the issue and coordinate any necessary repairs in accordance with warranty guidelines.

                            Are there model homes or open houses available?

                            Yes. Most of our communities offer model homes and regular open house hours, along with private tours by appointment.

                              What makes Cedar & Sage Homes different?

                              We focus on quality construction, thoughtful design, and a seamless buyer experience—from initial tour through post-closing support. Our communities are intentionally planned with lifestyle, location, and long-term value in mind.
