Hi everyone. It's Lance Mohr, your real estate expert and new home specialist
In this video I want to talk about how to get the best deal on a new home.
Alright so this is actually a question I get quite often how do I get the best
deal when I'm buying a new home and I wish I had any easy answer for you but
the only answer I could give you is to make sure you're working and being
represented by a real estate agent that knows what the heck they're doing when
it comes to new homes someone who sold a lot of new homes before who's selling a
lot of new homes before that understand how builders negotiate and what you need
to do the reason a lot of times buyers will say well yeah but I'm going to
negotiate by myself I mean at the end of the day two things number one whether
you're using a real estate agent from whether you're not there commission and
their money's already in the price of that home because the Builder put in the
price of their home when they you know when they were doing the numbers the
prior year and I go into this on a lot more detail in one of my new home videos
and if you haven't watched it I would highly suggest you do that it's up above
the other reason it is as a home buyer you're one and done
you're not going to probably buy another home through this builder none of your
friends family members that you're going to talk to about are going to buy a home
so it's like one and done what does the Builder really care its business you
bring in Aging in there they know who these agents are they know the agents
that are selling they look in their database and know the names I've had
builders that I've sold so pay homes for before I knew the president of the
company it's just they know that stuff they know
who's doing what who isn't doing what in an agent that knows what they're doing
is going to know how to negotiate with the Builder it's not just slinging mud
against the wall and hoping you get a good deal I think this is business that
isn't how you do it so I wish I could give you another answer I would say did
an agent hire an agent that knows they're doing if you're in the Tampa Bay
area give me a call I'd love to work with you if you're in another state or
in another area Florida let me know I have tons of contacts with agents that
are new home specialist out there they can help you get a better deal on home
so the other thing you need to know it also depends on the market we're at even
though right now we're in a phenomenally good market I'm still having a lot of
luck negotiated with the majority of all builders now with that being said there
are some builders right now that just do no negotiation but I've noticed over the
years to homebuyers it isn't necessarily how good of a deal the home buyer gets
it's just a matter of what most people want they don't want anybody getting a
better deal to them and that's when I always tell my buyers I say I can't
promise you're going to get what you want but I'll tell you this someone's
not going to get a better deal than you you're going to get a better deal or
just as a good fit the deal is your neighbor and in most cases a better deal
so if you have any questions at all let me know if you need help find them an
agent just fill out the form or you know if you have any questions to me fill out

luck and check out the new home video that I did it's a pretty lengthy video
