Why do I need a DFW Realtor when Buying New?
Myth 1: A new home buyer will get a better deal if they go in without a Realtor. Having your own Realtor doesn't cost you anything but offers you many advantages and protection. The builder already accounts for, and adds in, an agent's commission to the price of the home. HHaving your own Realtor to represent you could save you thousands of dollars. Take advantage of your Realtors service, have representation and get a great deal. Myth 2: The builder’s representative will deal with me fairly. The builder's representative works only for the builder and is only looking out for the Builders best interest. If you take your own Realtor you will have someone looking out for your best interest. Having an experienced DFW Realtor with you will give you more negotiating power and your Realtor will find ways to get the sales price lowered and see if any special incentives can be included in your purchase. Your Realtor can help you research the builder to make sure they are financially sound, and not headed for bankruptcy, prior to signing a contract. Your Realtor can review the builder's contract for you and make sure all the correct terms and conditions are included. A builder's contract is much different than a standard Texas Real Estate Commission contract. Make sure you understand each and every paragraph or the contract before you sign. Your Realtor will walk you through the contract and building process to help make it smooth and predictable. Builders rely on their reputation to keep their bustling and their reputation with the Realtor community is paramount to their success. When a builder see that you have a Realtor, they go out of their way to make sure things are done correctly and efficiently. VERY IMPOTRTANT: Your Realtor must accompany you when you walk through the builder's door or you will find yourself with no representation. It is in your best interest to retain a Realtor with experience with builders to give you an edge and get the best deal possible on your new home. Now, more than ever, an is needed to help find you the best builder. Not all builders and new home communities are listed in the and some effort is need to uncover the best builders in the best communities.
