Builders may offer closing-cost assistance, interest-rate incentives, upgrade credits, appliance packages, or promotional pricing. The total value depends on the offer and its conditions.
- Closing-cost assistance
- Temporary or permanent interest-rate incentives
- Design-center or upgrade credits
- Lot-premium discounts
- Appliance or window-covering packages
- Promotional pricing on selected inventory homes
Do Not Focus Only on the Incentive
A larger incentive does not always create the best overall financial option. Compare the home price, financing terms, lender fees, monthly payment, upgrades, and closing costs before deciding.
Use Mortgage CalculatorNew Construction Costs to Consider
The advertised base price may not represent the final purchase price. Review structural options, design selections, homesite premiums, community fees, and post-closing expenses.
Base Price
The starting price generally includes the standard floor plan, features, finishes, and a designated homesite category.
Lot Premium
Builders may charge more for larger lots, corner locations, cul-de-sacs, water views, conservation views, or premium community locations.
Structural Options
Additional bedrooms, extended lanais, garage expansions, lofts, offices, bathrooms, and layout modifications may increase the price.
Design Upgrades
Flooring, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, appliances, tile, lighting, paint, and other selections can significantly affect the final cost.
Community Fees
Review HOA fees, CDD assessments, amenity fees, transfer fees, capital contributions, and community-maintenance obligations.
After-Closing Items
Budget for window treatments, ceiling fans, landscaping, fencing, appliances, storage, security systems, and other items not included by the builder.

Final Walkthrough and Closing
Review outstanding items, confirm final financing and insurance, complete the walkthrough, and prepare for closing.
Consider Independent Home Inspections
A newly built home can still have incomplete work, installation issues, cosmetic defects, or systems that require adjustment. Independent inspections can help identify concerns before important construction and closing milestones.
- Pre-drywall inspection when permitted
- Final inspection before closing
- Review of major systems and visible components
- Walkthrough and repair-item documentation
- Optional warranty inspection before coverage expires
A Builder Walkthrough Is Not the Same as an Inspection
The builder’s orientation generally explains the home and records visible completion items. An independent inspector evaluates accessible components from the buyer’s perspective.
Discuss the Inspection ProcessUnderstand the Builder Warranty
Warranty coverage, claim procedures, exclusions, deadlines, and responsible service providers vary by builder and component. Review the warranty documents carefully.
Workmanship Coverage
May address eligible construction, installation, finish, or material concerns during a specified initial period.
Systems Coverage
Certain plumbing, electrical, HVAC, or mechanical components may be covered under separate terms and timelines.
Structural Coverage
Structural coverage may have different eligibility standards, exclusions, claim procedures, and coverage periods.
Manufacturer Warranties
Appliances, roofing materials, equipment, windows, and other products may have separate manufacturer warranties.

New Construction Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a real estate agent when buying from a builder?
You are generally not required to use an agent, but the builder’s sales representative works for the builder. Having your own agent provides independent guidance focused on your interests.
When should I contact David?
Contact David before visiting model homes or registering with a builder. Registration and agent-participation policies vary, and representation may need to be established during the first visit.
Does using a buyer’s agent increase the price?
Builder compensation and registration policies vary. The home price is established by the builder, and buyers should confirm the applicable terms for each community.
Can I negotiate the price of a new construction home?
Negotiability depends on the builder, community, inventory, construction stage, sales pace, and current promotions. Builders may be more flexible with incentives or selected inventory than with base pricing.
Should I use the builder’s preferred lender?
Builders may offer incentives for using an affiliated or preferred lender. Compare the interest rate, fees, closing costs, loan terms, and total payment with other financing options before deciding.
Should a new home be inspected?
An independent inspection can help identify incomplete work, installation concerns, damaged items, or systems requiring attention before closing or warranty deadlines.
How long does it take to build a new home?
Construction timelines vary based on the builder, home design, permitting, labor, materials, weather, inspections, and other factors. Completion dates are often estimates rather than guarantees.
What is a quick move-in home?
A quick move-in home is already under construction or completed. The builder has usually selected many structural and design features, allowing for a shorter move-in timeline.
What are lot premiums?
A lot premium is an additional charge for a homesite with characteristics the builder considers more desirable, such as extra size, a corner location, water view, conservation view, or cul-de-sac placement.
Can the final price be higher than the advertised price?
Yes. The final price may include a lot premium, structural options, design upgrades, appliances, community fees, and other selections not included in the advertised base price.
Builder and Community Information Notice
Builder availability, pricing, incentives, financing offers, floor plans, features, deposits, completion dates, community fees, warranties, and registration policies are subject to change. Buyers should review all builder documents, obtain appropriate professional advice, and independently verify information important to their purchase.
