Yes, you can use a realtor to purchase a new home!

Purchasing a new home can be a meaningful and rewarding decision.  You are able to visualize your dream home and make it a reality.  Like any major purchase, it can also be overwhelming.  There are many decisions that are necessary in purchasing a new home along with the contract writing, negotiation and finalizing the deal.  All  of these transactions can be complex and must be exact in order to protect you and ensure you get exactly what you want in your home.

Having the expert knowledge and experience of a Realtor who is representing your interests can help ease the stress.  Let me act as an intermediary between the seller (the builder) and you, the buyer of the property by representing you and your interests.  The builder has a professional real estate professional representing their interests; you deserve the same.

Throughout my career, I have assisted many clients through this process.  On their behalf, I have negotiated a better bottom line or purchase price with improvements and upgrades to the final purchase agreement.  

Let me work on your behalf to get the best deal possible!

 *Note: The builder requires that your agent accompany you on your first visit to the builder’s sales office or they will not pay your representative’s fee.
