Common New Construction Questions

  • Absolutely! The builder's sales agent represents the builder's interests, not yours. Having your own representation ensures you get the best deal and protection.

  • No! Builders typically budget for buyer agent commissions. Whether you have representation or not, the price is usually the same—you might as well have an advocate.

  • I'll help you identify which upgrades add real value versus those that are overpriced. Structural upgrades are harder to add later, while cosmetic items can often be done more affordably after closing.

  • Typical new construction timelines range from 4-8 months, depending on the builder, home size, and weather. I'll help you understand realistic timelines and hold builders accountable.
