The builder has representation. You should, too.
When you visit a model home, you'll usually meet a knowledgeable New Homes Salesperson who can answer questions about the builder, available homes, floorplans, features, and community.
These salespeople are an important part of the new construction process, and they're a valuable source of information.
What we want buyers to understand is that the New Homes Salesperson represents the builder.
That's not a bad thing. It's simply important to understand whose interests everyone represents.
When we represent you, our responsibility is to look out for your interests throughout the buying process.
We will help you compare builders, communities, floorplans, pricing, incentives, financing options, and contract terms. We can also help you navigate construction timelines, inspections, and closing.
Before your first visit: Some builders have registration requirements that can affect whether you can have your own Realtor represent you. We recommend contacting us before your first visit to a model home so we can plan a visit together. If you visit on your own, be sure to tell the sales representative that you're working with us and ask to have us registered as your Realtors. Keep in mind that some builders require your Realtor to be registered before your first visit.
We believe buyers make better decisions when they understand their options and have experienced representation on their side.
Every homebuilder offers something different, from floorplans and architectural styles to included features, available options, pricing, and community locations.
We encourage you to compare builders before making a decision. Understanding what's included in the price of a home, which features are optional, and how available incentives work can help you make a more informed choice.
We've organized information about local builders so you can learn about their communities, review floorplans, and see what homes may be available.

Choosing the right community is just as important as choosing the right home.
Location can affect your daily commute, access to shopping and services, and the type of neighborhood you prefer.
Some buyers want to be close to established areas, while others prefer newer neighborhoods or locations with more space.

Finding the right floorplan is about more than square footage.
You might prefer a single-story home, a spacious two-story design, an open kitchen and living area, or additional bedrooms for guests or a home office.
We encourage buyers to consider how a home will function for their everyday needs.
When reviewing floorplans, it's helpful to compare bedrooms, bathrooms, garage configurations, exterior elevations, included features, and available options.
It's also important to understand that not every floorplan is offered in every community.

Sometimes it's easier to understand a floorplan when you can actually walk through it.
That's why we create video tours of new construction homes throughout Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and surrounding communities.
Our NM Moves 505 video tours take you through model homes so you can see kitchens, living areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, and other features.
These videos can help you understand how different floorplans are arranged and decide which homes you'd like to visit in person.

Your current home may be one of your most valuable financial assets.
If you're planning to sell your current home and purchase a brand-new one, you're managing two major transactions.
One of the most important things to consider is how much equity you'll keep from the sale of your current home.
Here's something many homeowners don't realize.
When we represent you in the purchase of your next home, you may qualify to have us list your current home with a 0% listing brokerage commission through our Buy With Us, List For Free program.
For example, avoiding a 3% listing brokerage commission on a $500,000 home could mean keeping an additional $15,000 before applicable taxes and other selling costs.
That's money you could potentially use toward backyard landscaping, window coverings, upgrades, moving expenses, or a mortgage rate buydown.
We also help coordinate the timing of your current home's sale with the construction and closing of your next home.
Our thinking is simple: the more equity you keep, the more options you have when moving into your new home.

What happens when you're ready to sell your new home?
Most people don't think about selling a brand-new home while they're still shopping for one.
But circumstances change. Families grow, jobs change, and sometimes the home that fits your needs today isn't the home you'll need 5 or 10 years from now.
That's why we've developed our Lifetime Listing Guarantee.
When you purchase a new construction home with us, our guarantee provides an opportunity to receive a 0% listing brokerage commission when you sell that home in the future, subject to the guarantee's terms and conditions.
Whether that happens in 5, 10, or 15 years, we want you to know there's a potential benefit waiting for you when it's time for your next move.
We believe helping you protect your equity shouldn't be limited to your first transaction with us.
It's a fair question, and we think you deserve a straightforward answer.
When we represent you in the purchase of a new construction home, we may receive compensation through that transaction.
That creates an opportunity for us to structure our services differently.
Rather than treating the sale of your current home and the purchase of your next home as completely separate transactions, we connect the two.
We've also created our Lifetime Listing Guarantee because we want to continue providing value long after you've moved into your new home.
We believe a successful real estate business is built on relationships, good experiences, repeat clients, and referrals.
If we do a great job helping you buy your new home and save you money along the way, we hope you'll think of us when you need real estate guidance again and feel comfortable recommending us to all of your family and friends.
We'd rather build a relationship that lasts for years than focus on a single transaction.
Buying a brand-new home should be an enjoyable experience, but it's also a significant financial decision.
We encourage you to take your time, visit different communities, ask questions, compare your options, and understand the details before signing anything.
Whether you're just starting to look or already have a particular builder in mind, we're happy to share what we know.
Our goal is to help you understand the process so you can make decisions that are right for you.
