New Construction Tips
Thinking About Buying New Construction?
It is important with a new-home purchase that a buyer hire a real estate agent to represent them in this process. ... As Realtors who specialize in an area of Atlanta with a lot of new construction, buyers ask us all the time if they can use a real estate agent when they are purchasing new construction. The answer is yes.
Buying new construction is usually more complicated and more intimidating than buying a resale home. It is important with a new construction purchase that a buyer hire a good Realtor to represent them in this process. In general builder's model homes are staffed by agents who work directly for and represent the builder.
There are many, many decisions that need to be made during this process and there is truly no substitute for experience. From lot selection to where to place the wet bar plumbing... from deciding on the right floor plan to placement of electrical outlets... Traditions Home Team, experienced in new home construction, can make a huge difference in the outcome of the project. And, we will represent you and your interests, not the builder's.
There are literally thousands of processes in building a new home today....and over 50 inspections along the way. navigating the price sheets of some builders can feel like a shell game where costs change over night...and options that were yours one day are changed or deleted the next.
Let us help you navigate this exciting process so you can enjoy the experience of building a new home.

As a metro Atlanta Realtor, I had the pleasure of cooperating on the sale of my listing with Buyer agent Marie Torrance with Traditions Home Team. In this highly competitive market, every seller has plenty of choices when finding a buyer for their home. When I spoke with Marie, I knew immediately that the sale would be a win for both parties. Not only was she a delightful communicator, but she had incredible organization and care for her buyers and our relationship as cooperating agents. This mentality always leads to a smoother transaction. The sellers could have gone with another buyer easily, but Marie clinched the deal for her buyers with me on the spot! Thankful to have worked with Marie and hope to again in the future!

Buying and selling a house with Jeannie & Marie was such a great experience! They listened carefully to what was important to us and made it their mission to find that for us. And I never imagined selling our house would be so simple. They helped line up what needed to be done step by step so it wasn’t as overwhelming as I feared it would be. I hope I don’t move again in the near future, but if I do I know who I’ll call!
