Buying a Signature Home
You buy a defined residence, not a construction service. First establish its specification, completion obligations, inspection rights and financing deadlines with your advisers. No residences are currently offered on this website.
Personal review notes · Educational questions, not property specifications or promised terms.
Plan, specification and included/excluded schedule
Match the written room layout, products and site work to what you have been shown. Ask for missing model numbers and whether furnishings, appliances or landscape work are included. A photograph is not an inclusion list.
Completion provisions and inspection/access terms
Ask how completion is defined, who approves remaining items and which dates are estimates. Your attorney should explain remedies and obligations; do not assume a website stage or walkthrough replaces the agreement.
Purchase agreement, financing and due-diligence dates
Have your own advisers explain deposits, deadlines, appraisal requirements, association documents and warranty exclusions. Put unresolved answers in writing before committing, not in a post-signing email.
Notes stay in this page only and are not submitted to Peters Signature Homes.
For any future offering, compare the residence’s plan, specification, inclusions, exclusions and completion information. At present this website lists no homes; this is preparation, not an invitation to purchase.
Before a future transaction, confirm permitted access and your inspector’s scope in writing. Do not assume a tour or inspection is offered, and never enter an active site without authorization.
You and your professional advisers review the applicable purchase agreement, seller identity, disclosures, due diligence, financing and closing terms. This website is not a substitute for those documents.
Follow the transaction's walkthrough, closing, delivery and owner-care process as set out in the documents for that residence.
A spec home is built by the builder before it is sold, so you are buying a defined set of decisions rather than commissioning one. It removes a buyer-led design commission, but timing still depends on completion, financing and the agreement. Your review should focus on the specification, the quality of the work behind the walls and the builder's warranty documents, rather than staging or finishes.
If the residence is still under construction when you agree to buy, ask what is fixed, what is still open and how completion will be defined. The new construction quality checks guide explains what to review before walls close and at the final walkthrough.
North Carolina residential purchases commonly include a due diligence period, during which the buyer completes inspections, financing, appraisal and any other investigations, and a due diligence fee and earnest money deposit. The exact terms, amounts and dates for a Signature residence are set in its purchase agreement, which may include a new construction addendum.
North Carolina's Residential Property and Owners' Association Disclosure Statement generally does not apply to a newly built home that has never been occupied. That makes the builder's own documents, the specification and an independent inspection more important, not less. In North Carolina a licensed attorney certifies title and conducts the closing, so engage your own attorney early.
Lenders treat a completed new home much like any other purchase, but timing matters when a residence is still being finished. Ask your lender how long a rate lock can be held, when the appraisal will be ordered and what the lender needs to see at completion, such as a certificate of occupancy.
The monthly estimate calculator below gives a rough figure for planning only. A lender's written estimate is the figure to rely on.
Before closing you walk the residence to confirm it is complete as agreed and to note any items still to be finished. At closing you receive the keys along with the documents for the home, including manufacturer warranties and care information.
After closing, the Owner Care page explains where to direct questions, what to have ready and how to look after a new home through a Charlotte year.

Every Signature residence is in the Charlotte, North Carolina region, and the neighborhood shapes the purchase as much as the house does — lot size, grade, historic review, shoreline regulation and the character of the street all differ from one area to the next. The area guides below describe general settings, not current or past projects.
Building in the Charlotte region does not mean a residence is currently offered in any particular area. No residences are currently offered; future announcements belong on the residences page. General area guides do not establish a company project.

This calculator is an illustration only. It is not a loan offer, pre-qualification, rate quote, tax estimate or insurance quote, and it does not include closing costs, mortgage insurance, escrow, utilities or any assessment. Actual figures depend on your lender, your credit, the county tax authority, your insurer and the applicable purchase agreement. Peters Signature Homes does not provide lending, tax, insurance, legal or investment advice.
Whether a particular residence can be purchased before completion is a question of that home's own documents, because construction stage, lender requirements and timing differ from residence to residence. Ask about the home you are interested in and a representative can explain the applicable documents for a future offering. No purchase or preview is currently offered through this website.
Purchasing a residence during construction does not create a custom-building engagement and does not confer the right to change plans, specifications or finishes.
This website does not accept deposits, reservation payments, earnest money, contract signatures or financing applications. Those are handled through the applicable documents and the parties identified in them.
