Do you need a buyerโ€™s agent when purchasing new construction?

You absolutely do!  Think of a buyer’s agent as your personal real estate bodyguard. Their top priority is to look out for your best interest.  We are there to guide you and to protect you every step of the way with your home and lot selection, negotiations, and purchase.  Remember, the sales person in the model home is working for the builder, NOT you! They will not advocate on your behalf.

When it comes to buying new construction a buyer’s agent can assist you in making decisions such as:

We come in contact with numerous builders and have developed great working relationships with many builders in our area. Every builder has a unique style and, because we are well acquainted with these builders, we can help you select the one that best fits your needs. Not all builders are created equal.

Customizing a home to fit your wants and needs is one of the most appealing reasons a homeowner chooses new construction.  Having an opportunity to personalize the details of your home can be fun, rewarding, but may also be overwhelming and expensive.  Some upgrades are definitely worth the investment, while others may be completed at a later date for less. We can offer our suggestions to help you make your final decisions.

All prices are negotiable, even new construction!

Buying any home without an agent that you trust can put you at a considerable disadvantage. As wonderful as the sales representative is in the model home, they represent the builder, not you. You need someone looking out for your best interests.
