WHY USE A REALTOR?
Many people think they don't
need a Realtor when buying new construction.
After all,
you just go to the builder and pick out a house you like....right?
WRONG!
Truth is, purchasing new
home construction can be much harder than purchasing an existing home.
As
your realtor I work with you all the way.
-
I am with
you the first day you talk with the builder's agent.
-
I am with
you when you sign the contract, to make sure you understand everything.
-
I may go out
to the home site to check things for you.
-
I am with
you for your pre-closing walk though, to check for cosmetic and other
problems.
-
I meet with
your home inspector, should you choose to hire one.
-
And I
will be there with you at the closing table, making sure that everything is
correct on your settlement papers, and that you receive everything that you
are supposed to have.
And
what's more...... Tthe builder may tell you that they will
pay $2000 or $3000 of the closing costs. But what does
that really mean? Usually they are paying that much
of the TOTAL closing costs, which means both theirs
and yours. Or they take normal seller costs, and put
them on the buyer's side of the transaction, and then offer
to pay them. Clever, right?
**
A home inspection is always suggested, and some mortgage companies
may require a Wood Rot/Termite inspection, about $450 total
for both. Upfront fees for credit report and appraisal
(about $400) may be required, but are reimbursable at closing
from either the seller, and or Harbor Lights Realty, Inc.
 
What
could be better than owning your own home?
