Maintenance isn’t optional—it’s essential. In this episode, we talk through what homeowners should be doing to protect their home after move-in and why it matters more than most people realize. Joined by a maintenance expert, we break down simple habits that prevent costly repairs down the road. If you want your home to perform the way it was built to, this is where it starts.

You’ve made it to the finish line—but what happens next? In this episode, we walk through the final homeowner walkthrough and break down what your 1-year builder warranty actually covers. From punch lists to post-move-in expectations, this is the part of the process that ensures your home performs the way it should. If you want to know what to look for—and what matters most—this episode is for you.

If you’ve been thinking about building—or buying—now is the time to pay attention. In this episode, we sit down with the Maykus Homes sales team to walk through what’s available now, what’s coming soon, and where opportunities are opening up. From move-in ready homes to future developments, this is your inside look at what’s on the horizon. And if you’re not sure where to start, we’ll point you in the right direction.

You’re two weeks out from move-in—and while your home may look finished, behind the scenes it's organized chaos. Crews are hustling, punch lists are growing, appliances are arriving, and there’s a mad dash to wrap up dozens of final details before you get the keys. It’s loud, it’s messy, and it’s one of the most intense phases of the entire construction process. In this episode of Built to Last, host Eric Schwarze, Director of Construction at Maykus Homes, is joined by builder Bubba Gregg to walk through the last 14 days before closing. From city paperwork and inspections to punch lists, appliance installs, and homeowner walkthroughs, they’ll break down what’s happening behind the scenes—and why those final details matter.
