Your Dream Town Buyer’s Representative can help you avoid common mistakes people make during the home-buying process, mistakes that could end up costing you thousands.
First, don’t go to a developer’s sales office without your Dream Town buyer’s representative by your side. If you show up without a RealtorĀ®, or register on the developer’s website on your own, other agents can no longer represent you with that particular developer. Instead, you will have to work with the developer’s sales representatives – who, needless to say, do not have your best interests in mind. Remember, they work for the developer.
Your Dream Town RealtorĀ®, on the other hand, protects your interests and works to secure the best price possible on your new home. A Dream Town broker can also help you get builder incentives and upgrades that you would not have known about otherwise.
Another mistake to steer clear of is looking at properties without first getting pre-qualified. It is important to learn how much you can actually afford before getting too far into your home search. Pre-qualification helps you do this in addition to giving you negotiating power over other buyers who may not be pre-qualified.
Your Dream Town broker can recommend a lender to help you with the pre-qualification process, it requires only your social security number and won’t cost you a thing.
