From a slab… to framing… to HOME. 🏡🔨
I LOVE watching homes come together for my buyers! It's pretty exciting seeing a home go from paper to actually being able to walk through the rooms they chose. Congrats guys!! I'm so excited for you!!
If you know me, you know I’m a Pulte fan. I’ve had great experiences working with their team and watching the process from beginning to end. But there are also several great builders in our area, and part of my job is helping buyers understand the differences, ask the right questions, and figure out which builder and community make the most sense for them.
ONE THING THAT I REALLY WANT BUYERS TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT NEW CONSTRUCTION: you can—and should—have your own representation.
The salesperson in the model home represents the builder. Having your own agent means you have someone in the process representing you—from understanding incentives and contracts to inspections, walkthroughs and everything that comes between signing and closing.
Most builders welcome buyer agents, but their policies aren't all the same. Some require your agent to be involved or identified from your very first visit, which is why I always tell people:
BEFORE YOU STOP BY A MODEL HOME, LET YOUR AGENT KNOW YOU'RE INTERESTED IN NEW CONSTRUCTION.
And if you happen to stop in on your own, make it clear right away that you're already working with an agent and want your own representation. Don't assume you can simply add your agent later.
Whether that agent is me or someone else, I want buyers to know this before they start touring—not after.
And if you're curious about building but have no idea where to start, I'd love to sit down with you, explain how the process works and help you explore your options. You don't have to know which builder, floor plan or neighborhood you want yet. That's what I'm here to help you figure out. ❤️
