I used to live in the DFW area and they are a descent builder.

Get with the builder and pay for extra insulation, best windows available and please get extra power outlets everywhere, especially in the garage and attic. Pay for a couple of extra lights in the attic as well.

Then you go yourself (or pay someone) and run CAT 5 computer cable to EVERY room, as well as the kitchen, garage and attic. Tie it to the electrical outlets and leave an extra couple of feet near the baseboard. This way you can have a hard wired computer outlet in every room for the future. WiFi is nice, hard wired is better, faster and secure.

Also make sure that you spend the extra money to wire in speaker wire in the entertainment room for the surround sound system.
