Negotiating Your New Construction Home Purchase

Once you’ve decided to move forward with a new construction purchase, keeping an agent involved is important as we can respond in ways that you can’t.

For example, the builder may not negotiate on price, but they may have other areas where they will negotiate - the builder may agree to give you a credit in the design center or offer lender financing discounts.

When you progress to the design phase, you can also include us. We help you stay within your budget and remind you what features matter most if you decide to sell in the future.

What most buyers don’t realize is that your real estate agent’s commission is traditionally covered by the builder - it is not an out of pocket expense to you. And, you don’t pay more for a new home when you’re represented by your own agent.

If you have questions about negotiating the contract while looking for a new construction home, give our team a call at 904-465-9139 or complete the contact form on our website.
