Many builders now offer:
-Design centers for selecting finishes
-Builder incentives and rate buy-downs
-Smart-home technology
-Energy-efficient features
However, builder contracts and pricing structures can be very different from resale homes.
Having a local real estate agent represent you during the process can help you compare builders, understand incentives, and avoid common mistakes buyers make when purchasing new construction. An experienced agent will know which questions to ask and what to look for to ensure you are getting the most for your money.
