“A sound house is a good house. A house that can last you hundreds of years.”

Hundreds of homes are built each week in America. They go up quick and are expected to last a lifetime. These days, home building is all about speed. The faster the builder can turnover a new house, the better their margins.

But for the homeowner, it might not always be about speed. Sure it’s nice to sell my house fast in Delaware. Or even on the buying end, a cash deal is always fast and easier. But for the home itself, the construction and detail – that requires a much more methodical and slower approach.

Whether you are buying or selling a house, it’s crucial to know whether or not the materials are top-notch, the approach was up to code and that there are not massive shortcuts leading to poor living quality…or even and unsound house.
