What Should I Know About Spec Homes?

If you've started looking at new construction homes, you've probably heard the term "spec home." And if you're like many buyers I meet, you may have some assumptions about what that means.

One of the biggest misconceptions about spec homes is that they're cookie-cutter houses built with lower-quality materials and little thought put into the design. While that may be true for some builders, it doesn't have to be.

At Eastwood Homes, we believe a luxury spec home can offer the beauty and quality of a custom home, without the months of stress that come with custom homes!

What Is a Spec Home?

A spec home, short for "speculative home," is a new construction home built by a builder before a buyer purchases it. Instead of waiting for a homeowner to choose every detail

from the ground up, the builder carefully selects the floor plan, finishes, and features based on what today's buyers want and need.

Unlike a fully custom home, a spec home is often move-in ready or much closer to completion, allowing buyers to see exactly what they're purchasing before making a decision.

Eastwood Homes builds luxury spec homes with custom-level finishes, flexible spaces and timeless craftsmanship. See our Available Homes in Lubbock & Wolfforth.
