Specialty
New Construction Expertise
Building new can be exciting — but it's not the same as buying resale. Builder contracts favor the builder, and incentives can be confusing. I help you understand what you're signing, compare communities and builders, and make sure critical details don't get missed.
Common Questions
Buyer FAQs
Do I pay you as a buyer?
In most transactions, the seller pays the buyer's agent commission, so my services typically cost you nothing out of pocket. I'll explain exactly how compensation works during our first conversation so there are no surprises.
When should I talk to a lender?
Before you start touring homes. Getting pre-approved helps you understand your budget, shows sellers you're serious, and speeds up the offer process when you find the right home. I can connect you with trusted local lenders if you need recommendations.
Do I need an agent for new construction?
Yes — and it's crucial. Builder sales reps work for the builder, not you. Having your own agent means you have someone reviewing contracts, negotiating on your behalf, and making sure deadlines and details don't slip through the cracks. The builder typically pays my commission, so it costs you nothing to have representation.
