The Step-by-Step Process of Buying a New Construction Home with Local Realty Agency Mid-Cities

Buying a new construction home is an exciting journey, but it can feel overwhelming without the right guidance. At Local Realty Agency Mid-Cities, we simplify the process and help you make informed decisions. Plus, with our exclusive CashBack & Keys program, you could receive up to $15,000 at closing, on top of any builder incentives! Read on to learn how to navigate the home-buying process and maximize your savings.

Step 1: Touring New Construction Homes

The first step is exploring different new construction homes to find the perfect fit. Whether you want a move-in-ready home or prefer to build from the ground up, this stage helps you visualize your options. As you tour homes, consider layout, finishes, and any customizations available. Our team at Local Realty Agency Mid-Cities can guide you through this process and help you compare builder incentives.

Step 2: Making an Offer

Once you've found the right home, it's time to submit an offer. Unlike buying a resale home, negotiating with a builder is different, and you may have the opportunity to get special promotions or upgrades. With our expert real estate team, we ensure you get the best deal possible—plus, our CashBack & Keys program adds even more savings!

Step 3: Going Under Contract

After your offer is accepted, you’ll enter a formal contract with the builder. This document outlines the price, timeline, and other key terms. Our team reviews the contract with you to ensure everything is in your best interest.

Step 4: Financing Your New Home

Securing a mortgage for a new construction home can differ from buying a resale. Many builders offer preferred lenders with special incentives. Our network of trusted mortgage professionals can help you find the best financing options.

Step 5: Personalizing Your Home (For Custom Builds)

If you're building from scratch, this step lets you select finishes, fixtures, and upgrades. From kitchen cabinets to flooring and paint colors, this is where your home truly becomes yours.

Step 6: Pre-Construction Meeting

Before construction begins, you'll meet with the builder to finalize your home's plans and timeline. This meeting ensures all design choices are documented and approved before work starts.

Step 7: Home Construction Process

With everything in place, the builder will begin constructing your home. During this phase, you may have scheduled walkthroughs to see progress and address any concerns along the way.

Step 8: New Home Orientation & Final Walkthrough

As your home nears completion, you'll have an orientation and final walkthrough to ensure everything meets expectations. Any minor issues will be addressed before closing.

Step 9: Closing & Moving In

At closing, you’ll sign final paperwork, pay any remaining costs, and receive the keys to your new home. With our CashBack & Keys program, you’ll receive up to $15,000 at closing, adding to your savings!

Maximize Your Savings with Local Realty Agency Mid-Cities

In addition to builder incentives, our CashBack & Keys program ensures you get even more financial benefits when buying your new home.
