Many people really don’t understand the value of full-time professional real estate agents or Realtors. I hear people talk about all the driving they’ve done so they can see all the new subdivisions, but, in fact, they never see them all. A good agent will know where the new projects are, as well as the price ranges and the quality of the builders. When you are out traveling by yourself, you only get the sugar coated sales pitch.
Buyers who are new to an area especially need the experience of a professional real estate agent or broker to guide them through the process of determining which area is best for their investment, which builder they will want to work with and, most important, to be sure they are not overlooking unknown areas of town that would fit their price range, budget and personal needs. In Reno/Sparks Nevada there are over 100 new home projects and each of the builders has different product levels and communities from which to choose. No one has time to look at all of these. After a needs and wants evaluation, your real estate agent can help you determine where you need to look before you make this most important decision.
