Working with Red Door Homes
The traditional home-buying experience involves purchasing the land and the home together. Finding the house of your dreams in the location of your dreams can seem impossible. At Red Door Homes, we are making both a reality for East Tennessee residents.
Make a trip to our showroom
Whether you're building your first home or your forever home, start by scheduling a time to visit our showroom in Knoxville, TN. The showroom highlights a range of styles and finishes, allowing you to start visualizing your dream home. Take the first step by contacting us to schedule an appointment.
Find land
If you do not have land, we can recommend a reputable local realtor. If you have land, we will conduct a complimentary lot evaluation to ensure the plan you have chosen is compatible. After thoroughly assessing the site, we will provide a cost estimate. We go the extra mile to ensure you are making a good investment.
Select and finalize your floorplan
We offer a wide assortment of floorplans with multiple elevations available for each home. Plus, you can explore a range of additional features and upgrades. We empower every customer to customize our existing floorplans to their exact needs and specifications.
Conduct a cost study review
We offer a free cost estimate for the floor plan and upgrades you select for your new home. This will assist you in aligning your plan, your budget and your dream.
Sign your purchase agreement
Before construction on your home can begin, you must sign a purchase agreement that outlines the details of your home, including price. Red Door knows how important these documents are for a sale to proceed smoothly, so we write them clearly, accurately, and diligently.
Building begins
With the financing in place, the selections made, and the pre-construction meeting completed, you are free to sit back, relax, and let us handle the rest.
Warranties don't sell homes – they build trust.
Red Door Homes of East Tennessee offers home owners a warranty on every home they purchase. We have a long-standing relationship with one of the largest insurance organizations in the country: Professional Warranty Service Corporation (PWC).
Home Buyer Advantages
We provide our buyers with an express, 10-year limited warranty. In the unlikely event that we cannot perform our obligations under the warranty, our insurer will be there to assume responsibility for our performance – at no cost to you. Most other insured warranty programs require a consumer deductible, requiring you to pay even if the repair covered.
- Our insurer is the strongest in the industry
- The warranty is transferable to new owner upon home sale
- Underwriter Zurich North America is rated "A+" by a leading rating service
- Includes binding arbitration to settle disputes quickly and without excessive expense
The Warranty
There are three distinct home protection warranty periods:
Year 1: Workmanship and materials defects as defined by the warranty document.
Year 2: Major systems (exclusive of appliances and items of equipment) including wiring, piping, ductwork and specified structural elements.
(Note: The builder is responsible for making all warranted repairs in years one and two, however there is insurance, up to the original sales price of the home to make those repairs in the event the builder is unwilling or unable to perform his warranty obligations).
Years 3-10: The builder warrants the home against covered structural failures. The insurer assumes the builder's warranty obligations during this period.
