Another reason you need a #Realtor helping you when you buy a new construction home: I can get pictures and take video of your property for insurance or lending purposes as your home is being built.
The new home sales associates are swamped and may not be as responsive or as thorough as you need them to be, if you are dealing with tight deadlines.
Remember, new homes cost the same as the builder's advertised price when you are working with your own Realtor.
