Buying a New Construction Home

For many buyers, a brand new home is the way to go. The choices can be as endless as your imagination.  You can start from the ground up picking out everything from which lot to build on to what color paint you want in the guest bathroom.  Or you can pick out that perfect move-in ready home. Either way, the Tarpon Realty Team can help you decide what's right for you

Many builders offer home buyers incentives, but only if you know what to ask for and how.  At the Tarpon Realty Team, we have been through the process ourselves and have helped clients navigate it as well.  We have the knowledge, skills, experience, and tenacity to ensure that you get every possible incentive you deserve, from closing costs, design center credits to appliances, and window treatments.

One of the best parts of building a new home is picking out all of the options. You can skip this step if you decide to purchase a move-in ready home. But if you are ready to pick out everything, the design center can be both fun and overwhelming. Lucky for you, Kathi will be by your side with the experience and an eye for style to make the process fun and easy, and help keep you within your budget.

A new home comes with less maintenance and includes a warranty, which provides many new homeowners with peace of mind.  Enjoy the comfort of moving into your new home knowing that you don't have to worry about unexpected repair costs, and in the unlikely event that something does go wrong, a warranty claim can be filed and the issue will be taken care of by the builder.

Whether you chose to build from the ground up or pick an inventory home, it is likely that construction will be in progress.  Mike has been around construction for most of his life, most recently installing tile for over a decade while working his way through college before eventually moving to real estate. He will be available to visit the homesite with you and answer any questions you have about the construction process and make sure you select options and features that make the house more convenient, from additional outlets and lighting options to having enough switches in the right places and make sure that everything is built to the standards you expect.

Many newer neighborhoods have facilities and amenities that compete with luxury resorts. From Texas’ first Crystal Clear Lagoon, to golf courses, playgrounds, tennis, and basketball courts, to ponds stocked with fish the possibilities really are endless. The Tarpon Realty Team can find your next home in a community that fits your family's lifestyle.
