Important: Buyer's Agent vs. Builder's Agent
It's important to understand that when you look at new construction communities, it can be tempting to just let the builder's agent handle the transaction. However, having your own real estate agent is a better idea.
The realtor who works for you is known as a "buyer's agent" and it is their responsibility to look out for your best interests during the entire process. The seller pays both the selling and buying agents' commissions, which means Dr. Jan Duffy's services cost you nothing! Discover all the benefits of working with a buyer's agent.

Most builder's agents are thinking of their employer first and your needs second. The realtor you bring with you will ensure your interests are always at the forefront.
Dr. Jan Duffy works exclusively for YOU, not the builder. She will review contracts carefully, point out any issues, advise on upgrades that add value versus those that don't, and make sure you're protected throughout the entire process.
