Touring a model home is one of the most exciting steps in your homebuying journey. With DRB Homes at Brunswick Crossing, you're not just looking for a house you’re discovering your Destination Home. But to make the most of your visit, you’ll need more than enthusiasm. You’ll need a plan.
This guide will help you prepare for your DRB Homes tour, ask thoughtful questions, stay organized, and evaluate both the home and the lifestyle offered at Brunswick Crossing.
1. Start with Clear Priorities
Before you even step foot in a model home, take time to define your needs and wants. This keeps your tour focused and helps you avoid being swayed by features that don’t truly match your lifestyle.
Must-Haves Might Include:
- A specific number of bedrooms
- An Owner’s Suite on the main level

2. Know What’s Standard vs. Upgraded
Model homes often showcase beautiful upgrades—but not all of those features come standard. During your DRB Homes tour, ask these key questions:
- What features are included in the base price?
- Which design elements are considered upgrades?
- What do standard upgrades typically cost?
- Are there any current builder incentives or upgrade credits?
Some upgrades, like higher-end countertops or custom tile, can be worth the splurge in kitchens and bathrooms. However, if you’re on a budget, focus on what truly matters to your lifestyle and consider opting for standard finishes in less frequently used areas.

3. Use Tours to Compare Functionality
While finishes may grab your attention, it's the layout that impacts your day-to-day life. Touring multiple models allows you to experience how each space feels and functions.
Pay attention to:
- The flow between the kitchen, dining, and family areas
- Bedroom placement—are they clustered or separated for privacy?
- Laundry room location (main level, upper floor, or basement?
- Closet, pantry, and general storage space
Bring a checklist with you and compare each layout. Schedule your visit to explore several DRB Homes models and discover which one best suits your lifestyle.
4. Ask Smart Questions About Construction & Customization
Beyond surface beauty, it's essential to understand the construction quality and customization options available with DRB Homes. Use your tour to ask:
- Can I visit the home during different phases of construction?
- What warranties come with the home?
- Are there structural options, such as basements or sunrooms?
- How are lots chosen—and are there premiums?
Pay close attention to quality indicators like:
- Door and cabinet hardware
- Finish details around floors and windows
- The feel and sturdiness of drawers and closet doors
- Natural lighting throughout the home

Bonus Tip: Stay Organized with Notes and Photos
After a few model home tours, details start to blend. To stay focused, document everything:
- Take wide-angle and close-up photos
- Create a “likes vs. dislikes” list for each home.
- Track upgrade options you want to consider
- Note features like ceiling height, natural light, and traffic flow.
