From a past real estate nightmare to a brand-new dream home! 🏡✨ So incredibly happy for Nathan and Bethany!

When Nathan and Bethany first reached out, they were understandably cautious. A past experience with a buyer’s agent in North Carolina left them stuck with a home that needed major, unexpected repairs. On top of that, they wanted to be absolutely certain that a new mortgage, property taxes, and Florida insurance wouldn't put their family in a financial bind.

So, we pumped the brakes and listened. 📊 We mapped out the possible timing, discussed different loan types, and pinpointed the scenario where they would feel financially comfortable.

Initially, they didn’t think new construction was the route for them. But after touring a few homes, and finding the perfect floorplan and location, the numbers spoke for themselves. Once they saw the incredible interest rates we could secure, and realized we were able to get the builder to cover ALL of their closing costs, everything changed.

They fell in love with the rapidly growing Wyld Oaks region. And after Nathan did his own research on the 10-year projected home value increases for this specific area, making the leap into a brand-new build was a no-brainer! 📈

We made sure history didn't repeat itself. We guided them through every single step to ensure they were protected:
✅ Negotiating the initial contract with the builder
✅ Attending every inspection and construction walk-through
✅ Breaking down exactly how the CDD and property taxes work
✅ Reviewing and explaining the final closing documents

It was an absolute pleasure to protect, guide, and celebrate this sweet family as they achieved homeownership in a home they can truly trust. Welcome home, guys!

Thinking a brand-new home is out of your budget? You might be surprised by what we are able to negotiate with the builders. Drop a "NEW" in the comments or click the link in our bio, and let’s run the math for your family! 👇

🚀 NEXT-LEVEL RESULTS: From a seamless sale to a dream new build! 🏡✨**

Just closed on this beautiful property at 966 Maypole! For this listing, the Gilkey Real Estate team didn't just find a buyer; we engineered the perfect deal. We successfully negotiated a blended **partial cash and conventional loan** offer. Even better? We secured a **post-close occupancy** agreement, giving our seller the exact breathing room they needed to comfortably pack up and transition into their next chapter without a stressful, rushed timeline.

And what a next chapter it is! 🤩

We went on the hunt and found our client a property that checked absolutely every single box. They are now the proud owners of a stunning **new construction model home** loaded with over **$200,000 in premium upgrades**—all secured for the right price.

When it comes to our clients, we don't just accept the standard terms. We went to bat with the builder and secured a massive win:
* 📉 **Rate Buydown:** Negotiated by our team to keep those monthly payments low.
* 💰 **Closing Costs Covered:** We got the builder to foot the bill!
* 🤝 **Home Sale Contingency:** We protected our client by ensuring they could close on 966 Maypole first, allowing them to seamlessly transfer all their hard-earned equity directly into their new dream home.

Whether you are selling, buying, or trying to perfectly time a tricky double-transaction, you need a team with the strategy and rockstar negotiation skills to make it happen smoothly. That's the Gilkey Real Estate standard, because EXPERIENCE MATTERS! 🌟
