New Construction
The builder has a team. You should have representation too.
A model home can make the process feel simple, but the contract, included features, upgrades, inspections, incentives and completion timeline deserve independent attention.
What to know
What buyer representation adds.
01Contract review coordination
+
Builder contracts and deadlines differ from standard resale transactions. Know the obligations before signing.
02Base price versus final price
+
Lot premiums, structural options, design selections and upgrades can change the true purchase price substantially.
03Incentive comparison
+
Builder credits and affiliated-lender offers should be compared using the complete financing and closing-cost picture.
04Construction milestones
+
Maintain a clear record of selections, expected completion, walkthroughs and outstanding items.
05Independent inspections
+
A new home can still benefit from appropriately timed independent inspections and documented correction requests.
06Resale perspective
+
Lot, floor plan, upgrades and neighborhood development can affect future marketability—not just today’s appeal.
A helpful reminder
Contact Brittny before registering at a community or touring with a builder representative, because builder policies regarding buyer representation can vary.
