The Importance of Working with a Realtor When
Buying a New Construction Home
The Mary Ellen Vanaken Team 678.866.1935
The importance of working
with a Realtor when buying a new construction home is to assist you, the home buyer. New
Home Builders have on-site sales agents represent them in the sale of their
homes. When buying or building a new
construction home, buyers should have their own representation as well.
Myth: Prospective buyers think that they can get a
better deal by going straight to the builder.
False. Builders know that Realtors show prospective
buyers new and resale home; therefore, it is in their best interest to embrace the
Realtor. It is the Realtor’s role is to
find the best possible home for their buyer. They are an important source of
pre-qualified buyers whom they have educated about the buying process.
Today,
more Realtors are bringing their clients in to new home communities for good
reasons. New energy efficient homes, quality of construction, tested floorplans
and new home warranties are great incentives for buyers.
Typically,
on-site agents are trained to ask if prospective buyers are working with an
agent. It is important that buyers
visiting a new home community “just looking” inform the on-site sales agent
that they are represented by a Realtor.
Realtors should pre-register their clients if they know that their clients
may be interested in a community.
Having
a Realtor can provide valuable insight and assistance through the building
process. They act as another set of eyes
and ears and are an invaluable asset through closing. They are there to represent and protect their
buyer’s interests.
