New condo buildings are a marvel of technology and innovation. They have state of the art designs, which provide amenities and comfort. The process of creating these structures is quite involved. Most buildings are completed in about 5 years, from the first permits to tenants moving in.
The First Year
The first year is full of application for permits and approvals. Cities want to make sure the building developer is going to keep the building to city standards. Cities also have their own development plans, and a new construction project has to fit in with that. If everything goes well, a developer may be able to break ground near the end of the first year.
Construction
The construction phase is the longest stage for creating a building. It can take more than 4 years, depending on the size and complexity of the design. While construction does take a while, it is a busy time. It starts with digging the foundation. From there crews move on to structural components like stairwells, elevator shafts, and weight baring beams. Mechanical systems need to be installed, such as the plumbing. Next, walls and windows, and finally all the finishing design pieces. You can watch this progress, over months, as the project moves to completion.
Moving in
Finally, the construction will be mostly complete. At this point, homes for sale in Williamsburg Brooklyn, NY will be available. Most move in dates will be staggered, letting the developer fill parts of the building before everything is completed. There will still be some light finishing work to be done, and there could be a few problems that need to be ironed out. The developer will work closely with the new tenants to make sure all problems are addressed. While moving in can be stressful, it is also incredibly exciting to have your new home.
