At the time of final walk through we will address any questions or concerns you have about your new home. We will also familiarize you with your home equipment, and varying maintenance items that pertain to your home. Sometimes we need to order any missing parts, or schedule tune ups. These may not be finished completely before closing, but will be taken care of as promptly as possible.

We will send a reminder of your one year walk through after 11 months. It is your responsibility to schedule with us before the first year is through. Any minor areas of adjustment should wait until this walkthrough. Should a major issue arise it should be reported to us as soon as possible.

Thank you for considering Bakken Homes. We hope you enjoy the building process as much as we do.
