Builders emphasize windows and eight inch brick wall insulation, ask about vapor barriers and wiring adequacy for heavy appliances, and suggest planning for a second bath. Wenzler notes housing laws revisions make financing easier, with 30 year mortgages and GI down payment options, boosting buyer options and value.
