List price is not everything
Builders rarely drop the price, but they do negotiate upgrades, closing costs, and rate buydowns. You have to know what to ask for.
New construction
New home, expert strategy
The builder's sales agents work for the builder. Paola works for you — and her representation costs you nothing extra.
Why you should not walk into the sales office alone
The contract is the builder's
New-construction contracts protect the builder, not you. Paola reviews timelines, deposits, and clauses before you sign.
Inspections still matter
New does not mean perfect. An independent inspection before closing and before the warranty expires prevents costly surprises.
Your representation is free
The buyer's agent commission is paid by the builder — but only if you register with your agent from the very first visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it cost me anything to use Paola for new construction?
No. The builder pays the buyer's agent commission. The condition: Paola must register you as her client on your first visit to the project — even a virtual one.
Can you negotiate with a builder?
Yes, though not always on price: finish upgrades, appliances, closing costs, and mortgage-rate points are negotiable depending on where the project stands.
How long does new construction take?
It depends on the project: homes already under construction can deliver in a few months; building from scratch usually takes 8 to 14 months. Timelines are reviewed in the contract.
