The sales consultant at the model home works for the builder.
As your Realtor, my role is different.
I help you evaluate the property and transaction from your perspective.
And in many builder transactions, buyers can have their own Realtor representation without paying an additional real estate commission directly.
Representation requirements and builder policies can vary, so it is important to involve your Realtor before your first builder visit or registration whenever possible.

Builder Incentives Can Be Valuable. Compare the Entire Package
An incentive may sound impressive, but the right question is:
What is the total value of this offer for you?
We may compare:
• Purchase price
• Interest-rate incentives
• Closing-cost contributions
• Upgrade credits
• Lot premiums
• Preferred lender requirements
• Monthly payment
• Long-term financial impact
Choosing the Right Lot
The floor plan is only part of the decision.
The location of the homesite can affect:
• Privacy
• Traffic
• Views
• Outdoor space
• Noise
• Sun exposure
• Future construction nearby
• Potential resale appeal
• Lot premiums
