A LITTLE CLARITY FOR YOUR NEXT CHAPTER

Good questions.
Thoughtful answers.

New construction comes with plenty of questions. Here’s a place to start, with guidance that keeps your priorities at the center.

NEW CONSTRUCTION FAQS

01

Why should I have my own Realtor when buying new construction?

You deserve someone advocating for you. As helpful and welcoming as the onsite agents may be, they work for the seller. I work directly for you, keeping your priorities and interests at the center of the process.

02

Should I contact you before visiting a model home?

Yes! Contact me before your first visit so we can coordinate. Some builders require your Realtor to be present at your initial visit and may not allow you to add one later.

03

How does your experience working for builders benefit me?

I know the building process from beginning to end, including the internal terminology, procedures, timelines, and decisions along the way. That firsthand experience helps me explain what’s happening, anticipate questions, and guide you with a clear understanding of how builders operate.

04

Do I have to use the builder’s preferred lender?

No, but builders often offer incentives for doing so, such as closing cost assistance or an interest rate buydown. I encourage my clients to compare the full picture: the loan product, rate, fees, incentives, and customer service. The right choice is the lender offering the best overall fit for you.

05

Do I still need an inspection on a brand new home?

I recommend inspections to all my clients because even a brand new home is built by humans, and human error happens! When the construction stage allows, I recommend a pre-drywall inspection, followed by a final home inspection before closing.

06

What support will I have from you after I choose my home?

Choosing your home is just the beginning of our relationship! I stay involved with regular updates, photos, and videos as your home progresses. I’m here to answer the questions that come up, help coordinate your inspections, and support you every step of the way to closing day.
