There are so many positives to buying a new build and there is nothing like that freshly painted, completely up to date feeling of purchasing a brand new home. Most local builders have onsite sales representatives to help guide you through the process of building from dirt or purchasing a complete, or almost complete home. It’s important to keep in mind that you should always hire a licensed real estate agent to assist you.
We can negotiate on your behalf and be a sound middle person should something go array during the process. Sales representatives work for the builders and don’t always have your best interest at heart. That being said, most builders also have their own lending department to set up a mortgage for your new purchase as well. Oftentimes, builders use incentives to entice you to go through their brokerage. Definitely consider taking advantage of these hard to pass up motivators and then consider refinancing down the road to secure a (more often than not) better rate.
