From the contact form on BrunswickCrossing.com, you can initiate that process and clarify your preferred tour date and time.
3. Bring a Checklist
Create a checklist of features that are important to you in a home. Your checklist could include the number of bedrooms, layout, kitchen features, and outdoor spaces. A checklist will keep you organized and ensure you notice all critical aspects of a potential home. Whether you bring a physical checklist or confirm your “must-haves” with your partner or family, you can communicate those features with the builder during your tour.
4. Explore the Neighborhood

As you make your way to the model homes at Brunswick Crossing, take some time to explore the surrounding neighborhood. Check out our great amenities, parks, schools, and proximity to the great historic town of Brunswick, MD.
5. Imagine Your Lifestyle
As you walk through the model home, imagine your daily life within the rooms and spaces. Picture yourself cooking in the kitchen, relaxing in the living room, and utilizing the outdoor spaces. This will help determine if the layout and design align with your lifestyle and preferences.
6. Ask Questions
Don't hesitate to ask the Ryan Homes or DRB Homes new home specialists any questions. Whether it's about the construction process, customization options, or the community, getting all the information you need will empower you to make a confident decision.
7. Take Photos and Notes
Take photos of the model home with permission to help you remember the details later. Additionally, jot down notes about specific features or aspects that stood out. This will be beneficial when comparing different homes during your decision-making process.
8. Visit Multiple Times
Visit Brunswick Crossing and tour the model homes more than once. Your first visit might be overwhelming, and you could miss specific details. If you plan on touring all four models in one day, a return visit could be beneficial if you have narrowed down the builder or home design you prefer. Returning allows you to focus on specific elements and confirm your initial impressions.
9. Keep Perspective
Remember that the models are a showcase. DRB Homes and Ryan Homes have taken great care to stage their models in an inspiring and beautiful manner to accent their homes. The home furnishings, paint colors, wall treatments, window dressings, and accessories are meant to inspire, not to distract. Picture your furnishings in the space and clarify with the new home specialist what is included in the builder's design selection.
10. Reflect and Evaluate
After touring the model homes, take some time to reflect on your experience. Evaluate each home based on your checklist, notes, and overall impression. Is there a home you keep coming back to? Is there a model that needs to include something that another available home design under construction offers?
By following this ultimate guide, you'll be well-prepared to make the most of your model home tour at Brunswick Crossing. Happy house hunting!
