One of the best ways to get inspiration and new ideas on materials and finishes for your rehab projects is to walk-through new home builds in your area.

Home builders have their pulse on the market and know what home buyer's are looking for today.

Home builders also spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a year employing in-house design teams that specialize in picking cabinetry, floor materials and paint colors that look like they came straight out of a magazine.

Walk-through new home builds in you area and take pictures of the kitchens, bathrooms, and finishes being used that you can use for inspiration for selecting materials for your next rehab project.

Here are some pictures from my weekend walk-through of some new home builds here in Kansas City.
