Real Estate Options

From 'spec' homes that are move-in ready within 30 days to pre-construction dirt lots that require a 9-12 month build time, the options are vast. Having buyer representation is critical; remember that the nice agent in the model home works for the builder, not for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! The builder's sales representative represents the builder's best interests. As your buyer's agent, I represent you at no cost to you (the builder pays my fee). I help negotiate terms, monitor the build process, and ensure you get the best value.

Incentives are bonuses offered by the builder to encourage sales, often tied to using their preferred lender. These can include closing cost assistance, interest rate buy-downs, or free upgrades at the design center.

If you buy a 'spec' (inventory) home, it may be ready in 30-60 days. If you are building from the ground up (pre-construction), expect a timeline of 6 to 12 months, depending on the builder, supply chain issues, and weather.
