Buy new with a builder in your corner.
I spent ten years building homes. I know which upgrades pay you back, what the contract really says, and what to look for before the drywall goes up.
The things most buyers don't know to ask.
The lot
Orientation, drainage, what's planned next door, and whether the premium on a lot is worth it to you.
Plan & upgrades
Which upgrades are hard to add later and which you can skip now and do for less once you move in.
The contract
Builder contracts are written for the builder. We'll read the deposit, timeline and change-order terms together.
Incentives
Rate buy-downs, closing costs or upgrades: how to compare offers and which one actually saves you the most.
Inspections
New doesn't mean perfect. I recommend independent inspections before drywall and before closing.
The timeline
Realistic build schedules, rate locks and how to plan your move around a date that can change.
Bringing homes to market?
I work with builders and developers from lot to closing: pricing, launch, marketing and keeping buyers' agents informed. It helps to have someone who has been on the builder's side of the table.
I also represent builders on some of their listings. When a home you're interested in is one of them, I'll tell you up front and explain how that works before you decide anything.

No pressure and no pitch. Just straight answers about your move, your build or your sale.
