Thinking about purchasing a new contruction home, or having one built? It is a misconception that you will get a better deal by not using a realtor to represent you in this type of purchase, or that they will reduce the price of the home more since they don't have to pay commissions. The builder's sales agents are paid to represent the builder, regardless of what they may tell you. Many will use high pressure tactics to persuade you to sign the contract. Due to the high volume nature of brand new home sales, lots of builder's agents are paid less than a traditional commission; some earn a salary plus incentives, so turnover is important to their livelihood. The PescatoreAvrit Team will represent YOU, be your fiduciary and are required to disclose the positives as well as the negatives about the transaction. Builder's agents don't discuss drawbacks. A large part of our business is new contruction, and we have a database of over 76 area builder representatives. If you're looking for new construction you have the right team!! To learn more tips on buying new contruction, and to research area builders visit the new construction section under the "For Buyers" section at the top of the page. 
Home Inspections >If It Is Broken Fix It
Most houses have a few "little" problems, like leaking faucets, a stove burner that won't light, or electrical outlets with too much "spark". These defects may not seem very important--unless your house is about to go on the market.
We rarely have difficulty getting sellers to agree to paint, replace worn carpets or plant a few flowers in the front yard. These kinds of repairs obviously increase the overall appeal of the property. However, if any of the major systems in your home need maintenance, it is also prudent to have the necessary repairs made. Have your furnace, central air-conditioning system, plumbing and wiring checked as part of your pre-marketing efforts. The best rule is--if it's broken, fix it!
The purchase agreement requires that a house be conveyed with all the systems in working order, and most buyers will bring in a home inspector to identify any potential problems. During the period of time between the "meeting of the minds" and the removal of the inspection contingencies, the buyers are the most vulnerable to an attack of buyer's remorse. This is also the time when anything that hasn't been repaired could become a major issue.

What does "contingency" mean in real estate?
|
| A |
A contingency is a specified event that must take place before a home purchase contract is binding; for example, a sale can be said to be "contingent upon the sale of the buyer's current residence." |
