If you’re visiting a new build site, should you take your Realtor with you? The answer is always yes!

The common misconception is that you’re going to get a better deal without a Realtor present because they’ll subtract their commission off of the sale price. This is not true. In actuality, the builder has the Realtor’s commission in a separate marketing budget.

In addition, a Realtor can help you negotiate a price. When you walk in off the street by yourself, the builder is not going to tell you that the price of the home is negotiable. What we can do as Realtors is negotiate you a better deal. Sometimes this means a percentage off of upgrades, and other times it means that we can simply get you a lower purchase price.

A good Realtor can help you negotiate price.

In fact, recently we got one of our clients $46,000 off of the purchase price of a new build in Gilbert, Arizona!
