More often than not, new home buyers are under the misconception that it costs them money if they use a professional real estate agent, and they can GET A BETTER DEAL if they go it alone. THAT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. When I represent a buyer, whether it be for a resale home or a new home ~Buyers pay me nothing for my specialized education and experience ~ I have listed below a very short list of some of the things I do for my new home buyers.

1. Why you need specialized representation

· I am the one looking out for your interests.
· Remember!! Builders and their representatives do not represent you
· I can take you directly to the homes you like and the ones you can afford
· If you are moving here from out of town, I have photographs displayed of the homes inside and out helping you to better visualize what the home looks like. I also send you floorplans and elevations.
· I learn from you just how to fulfill your housing needs whether the home you want is new or existing

2. My Market Knowledge

· I know the builders, many of the new home agents, the builders' documented reputations, and how their products differ. This will enhance your ability to make informed decisions.
· I can tell you what to expect in the home-buying process, how it works, and what can go wrong
· I know the difference between new custom homes and new tract homes and what that means in terms of the builder's flexibility and costs
· Knowing how builders work, I can help you with your move-in timing and the timing for selling your existing home
· By specializing in new-home sales, I know most if not all of the subdivisions in the market and how they might compare to your needs and expectations
· I can help you assure quality control by knowing what inspections you need and when they should occur
· In knowing builder financing programs, I can assist you in evaluating one builder's program against another's, and against conventional lending programs
· I can tell you about the risks and benefits of smaller builders v. larger builders, and custom builders v. tract builders

3. How I manage relationships

· I understand the interests and expectations of builders and their salespeople
· I know how to work effectively with builder salespeople: they know what services I provide, and I know what our respective roles are in the entire process.
· I know the specific areas where I can make progress in negotiating on your behalf
· I have very productive relationships with numerous builders ' since I've been a productive source of business for them, they work with me to make my buyers happy

4. How I fulfill your housing needs

· I spend considerable time with buyers determining whether they want a new or existing home, a custom or tract home, or something in between
· Once we identify what you want, I can select several builders who are most likely to be able to produce what you want
· I can point out adverse and advantageous features of a property, neighborhood, or location that a builder or sales representative may not mention
· I can give you a report on any builder available through the register of contractors
· I personally preview and place photographs of model homes with comprehensive descriptions of the community on my website for your information so that you can get an idea of what you like while sitting at your computer
· I can pull public subdivision reports on any subdivision you are interested in so you can be more fully informed about specific data

5. How I protect your interests

· I can discuss with you all of the CC&R's and Public Report presented by the builder on your particular subdivision and how they affect your rights.
