New Tri Valley Homes
.
.
Are you considering buying a new home in Danville, San Ramon or elsewhere in the Tri Valley?
There are some amazing homes you can choose from priced from the high $300,000’s to the mid $2,000,000’s from builders such as Signature Properties, Shappell, Pulte, Lennar, Toll Brothers, KB, Discovery Homes, Centex, John Laing, J.R. Horton and others.
Our team has worked with many of the area’s builders and we will guarantee saving you many thousands of dollars when you buy a new home. Before you visit any sales office please read on to find out how you can benefit and save tens of thousands of dollars using a real estate agent to represent you when buying a new home.
Myth #1: It’s a new home and I don’t need a real estate agent; the sales office will handle the whole transaction.
Ouch! That’s called dual agency and is NOT in your best interests at all. The sales office represents the builder and they get paid by the builder. How well are they going to represent you to make sure that you get the best deal? It may seem simpler to a buyer to have the builder’s sales staff handle the paperwork but remember that they are representing the builder’s best interests and not yours. The fact is that new home builders welcome buyers with real estate agents and are happy to pay them a commission when they bring home buyers to their new developments. Builders know that real estate agents are the life blood of new as well as resale homes and when they work with Realtors it helps them to sell their homes faster. It may surprise you to know that more than 1/2 of all new home sales today are done with an agent representing the buyer!
Myth #2 New home prices are non-negotiable
A real estate agent can many times negotiate a much lower price for you on a new home than you can get in the sales office by yourself? How does saving $100,000 on a $1 million home sound? Yes, that’s 10% off! There are many ways for a real estate agent to save you money when buying a new home; Team Advantage puts everything on the table; premium upgrades, premium lot, pre-paid HOA dues, pre-paid interest, etc when we negotiate for our clients who want to buy a new home.
We have worked with many of the local builders and have wonderful working relationships. We know what is possible and we know when we can reasonably expect to negotiate a good deal for our buyers.
Caveat: Your agent must accompany you on your first visit to a sales office to “register” you with the builder so please ask your agent to go with you when you are ready to look at new homes.
