More than just a new house, when you live in Commack it is a community. Located in the suburbs of Long Island, homes in Commack give you and your family great schools and a strong sense of community.

As you look a Commack property, ask yourself these 5 things:

1. is this a house layout or an old new home? Many older new houses have smaller rooms lower ceilings, lacking that open house feel.

2. Does the kitchen need to be renovated? This can cost $50,000 or more; with new construction, you have the brand-house of your dreams built into the price of the house.

3. Does the new house have enough bedrooms? Most people want at least one extra room for future family growth, visitors or a house office. Make sure you don't limit yourself with your purchase.

4. How large is the basement? 30 years ago, people used the cellar for storage. Today, many people can pick up up to 2000 extra sq.ft. of living space by finishing their basement. Ideally, you have high ceilings (8 to 9 feet) with as little piping and low hanging duct work as possible. Some new houses designed twenty years ago had high ceilings but duct work and other items hung from the ceiling throughout the basement, creating a maze that people are required to duck through.

5. Do you like the people on the block? You will be living there, so be sure these are the people you want on your block.

As you choose your home, keep in mind-you're buying a new house, not just the new house. Make sure that you choose your house in Commack - or any other area - that is a house you will be happy in. - 31385
