While I might be a bit biased, I genuinely believe having a Realtor by your side is a smart move when embarking on the journey of building a new home. Whether it’s me or another capable broker in the neighborhood, having a Realtor adds significant value to your experience. Here’s the deal: the builder charges the same amount either way, and if you forego a broker, they pocket the money that could have covered your representation. A Realtor not only guides you through the process, explaining intricacies along the way, but also brings valuable insights from past experiences. Plus, the best part? It’s the seller who foots the bill for your Realtor, making it a win-win. If you’re hesitant due to past experiences, explore and chat with a few Realtors to find someone you’re comfortable with and can navigate this involved and lengthy process alongside.
