How My Experience with New Construction Builders Helps You Get the Best Deal.
Buying a new construction home is an exciting journey—but it's also one that comes with unique challenges that many buyers don’t see coming. The process isn’t like buying a resale home. It involves builder contracts, upgrades, timelines, and often, a lack of transparency when it comes to pricing and incentives.
That’s where my expertise comes in.
Over the years, I’ve worked directly with some of the top builders in the industry, including Toll Brothers, D.R. Horton, Lennar, and Meritage Homes. I understand how these companies operate, what their priorities are, and—most importantly—where there's room for negotiation.
I Know How Builders Think
Each builder has their own systems, sales strategies, and bottom-line goals. I’ve built strong relationships and a deep understanding of how they structure their pricing, how and when they offer incentives, and what their sales agents are authorized to negotiate.
This insight allows me to identify hidden opportunities for savings—whether it’s a closing cost contribution, a price reduction on a quick move-in home, or free upgrades that can add value without increasing your out-of-pocket costs.
Negotiating More Than Just Price
Most buyers don’t realize how much can actually be negotiated in a new build transaction. It’s not just about the purchase price—it’s also about lot premiums, design center upgrades, appliance packages, interest rate buy-downs, and extended warranties.
Because I know the process inside and out, I guide my clients on when to make the offer, what to ask for, and how to position themselves as strong buyers, especially when builders are trying to meet end-of-quarter or end-of-year sales goals.
Protecting Your Best Interests
When you walk into a model home, the builder’s sales rep is there to represent the builder—not you. My role is to represent your interests, explain the fine print, and make sure you're not being upsold or pressured into unnecessary expenses.
I take pride in making sure my clients get maximum value without overpaying—and that starts by understanding the builder's playbook better than they expect.
