Homeowner Guide

Welcome to the Destination Homes Homeowner Guide. As of April 2020, the Homeowner Guide will no longer be a printed manual, but will live entirely online. Please see applicable sections for your home below.

This manual is designed to help you with frequently asked questions concerning the purchase, construction, financing, and maintenance of your new home.

    Homeowner Guide

    Introduction

    Congratulations on your decision to purchase a new home from Destination Homes. We share your excitement about your new residence and look forward to having you work with us to build your home.

    The Destination Homes Homeowner Guide has been designed to assist you during and after the purchase of your home. The information presented here will answer many questions and prepare you for each step of the new home experience, making the home-buying process more enjoyable.

    In addition to guiding you through the process of purchasing and building, this guide provides a section called Caring for Your Home. This information covers essential maintenance guidelines and a description of the limited warranty program that comes with your new home.
