Here's the Truth

Why You Need Your Own Agent
at the Model Home

That friendly agent in the model home? They represent the builder's bottom line — not yours. Here's what Courtney brings to your side of the table.

01
Representation That Costs You Nothing

In most new construction deals, the builder pays your agent's commission. You get a fierce advocate reviewing every contract, deadline, and dollar — at no cost to you.

02
Negotiating Upgrades & Incentives

Builders rarely budge on price — but they will move on closing costs, rate buydowns, design center credits, and upgrades. Courtney knows what each builder is offering and how to ask.

03
Lot & Phase Strategy

Which lot, which phase, and when you sign all affect what your home is worth on day one and at resale. Courtney helps you pick with the long game in mind.

04
Inspections Still Matter

New doesn't mean flawless. Courtney pushes for independent inspections at pre-drywall and final walkthrough — so problems get fixed before closing, not after.

05
Builder Contract Fluency

Builder contracts are written by the builder's attorneys, for the builder. Courtney knows where the traps are — earnest money terms, delay clauses, and what's actually guaranteed.

06
Timeline Management

Build timelines slip. Courtney keeps the pressure on, coordinates your lender and your lease or sale timing, and keeps you informed at every milestone.

How It Works

Your New Build,
Step by Step

1
Strategy Session

We talk budget, timeline, communities, and builders. Courtney maps out which neighborhoods and floor plans fit your life — and which incentives are on the table right now.

2
Community & Builder Tours

Courtney tours model homes with you — critical, because if she isn't registered with you on your first visit, many builders won't let her represent you at all. Never visit a model home without her.

3
Lot Selection & Contract

Pick the right lot, structure the offer, negotiate incentives, and review every line of the builder contract before you sign anything.

4
Build Oversight

Design center guidance, pre-drywall inspection, progress checks, and steady communication with the builder team while your home goes vertical.

5
Final Walkthrough & Closing

Independent final inspection, punch-list follow-through, and a smooth closing. Then the fun part — the keys are yours.
