Buying new vs buying used? Pros and cons?

My bf and I are currently looking to purchase our first home in Orlando area, and we both are very against idea of having to do too much work on an out dated home in terms of interior design and repairs, so were only interested in homes that has already been remodeled. But we’re also inclined to purchase under constructed homes not yet built in developing areas since we like the idea of the home (hopefully) being in good shape and having the more modern amenities. We understand it may be a bit more expensive, however we justify it with knowing that no repairs will have to be made anytime soon (again, hopefully.) I’d like outside and experienced opinions of purchasing an already built (but fixed up) used home vs brand new. Besides the convenience of not have to stress over fixing it up to appeal to our styles and not having to worry about repairs, we’d like to know if purchasing new comes with its own set of cons that we may not know or see vs purchasing already built and owned.

I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
