Holly Springs buyers often come from other markets or are first-time homebuyers, and a lot of them are surprised that they need to have insurance figured out before the closing day. The builder's preferred carrier may be fine, but you owe it to yourself to get at least two or three quotes to see what the full market looks like. In my experience, there is often meaningful variation between carriers on new construction in Holly Springs, and it takes less than a day to find out.
