You find the perfect plan of new homes, and the perfect Phyllis Frankel Realty Group home to fit your lifestyle and your budget. You meet the builder, tour the plan, and fall in love. Do you live happily ever after? Does the fairy tale come with its own happy ending?
Well, that depends on whether you have tended to all of the intricacies and details involved with purchasing a new home. Often times, when homebuyers purchase a new construction they think that all of the information and guidance they will need will come from the builder. Although this could certainly hold true, most of the time it does not.
Instead, homebuyers should always consider having a buyer's agent in their corner; to represent them and to guide them through the potentially confusing and daunting task of purchasing a new construction.
Why is it important to have a buyer's agent when purchasing a new home?
- A buyer's agent with extensive knowledge of new home communities and details involved with purchasing a new home can prove extremely useful, and can provide you with plenty of information about the plan, the builder and the surrounding community, for example.
- A buyer's agent can help you negotiate a lower price with the builder, as he or she will likely have dealt with the builder in the past and will have a good idea of how to negotiate the deal. A good buyer's agent will also help you land the extras being offered by the builder, such as upgrades and incentives.
- A good buyer's agent may also be able to provide you with valuable information if you are relocating to a new area. From schools and day cares to public transportation and community activities, a buyer's agent can facilitate the process of relocating.
