“Nothing beats the feeling of being the first person to live in a newly-built home. Everything is shiny and untouched.”
Denver’s suburb new builds are the new alternative to high prices in Denver Metro.
When you’re house hunting, the allure of new construction is undeniable – full of brand new appliances, finishes and treatments that you picked to fit your style.
If you are interested in buying a new construction, the builder’s agent will be ready to help you with the process. But, do you need your own real estate agent from the get go? YES! YES! YES!
Make no mistake even if it seems like plug and play to sign up with the builder’s on-site agent, you’re going to want someone representing YOU!
“The builder’s agent always has the builder’s best interest in mind, their job is to get the builder the highest price for the homes,”
Don’t forget experience isn’t expensive. It’s priceless!
And, it’s Discover 5280’s job to help you;
- Negotiate extras: Want upgraded counters or appliances in that new home? Discover 5280 can help you with all those extra perks, amenities, and upgrades. Your Discover 5280 agent, who understands the ins and outs of home purchasing, can work on your behalf to negotiate a better deal, free upgrades. And, most importantly, we can advise you on what upgrades make sense and which ones are not worth the cost.
- Recommend financing: A builder typically will have a preferred lender that it will try to steer you to, but Discover 5280 and their ever growing list of local lending professionals can help make sure that you’re getting the mortgage that works best for you. ALWAYS shop around and compare costs.
- Get a home inspection: DON’T ever forgo a home inspection just because it’s new construction. New-home defects often rival resale home issues. The builders agent will unlikely even mention an inspection, so it’s us (you and your Discover 5280 real estate agent) to make it happen.
