Deal of the Week in New Homes

Centex Meadowgate in Roseville

I visited the Meadowgate community in Roseville yesterday looking for a client and hoping to find a good deal on a solar home.  I think I found a good one.

The home is called the “2190″.  This corresponds to the square footage of the home.  According to the sales associate, this home just fell out of escrow.  The person apparently lost quite a bit in the stock market crash and could no longer afford to pay cash for the home.  Their loss, this is a nice home at a decent price.  Let’s just say it’s a good place to start.

You Want What for This Home?

The sales associate took me out to see it.  The front, as you can see, is pretty nice.  3 car garage with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 or 3 baths.  Nicely appointed inside.  Granite counters inside with stainless steel appliances, all standard in most new homes today.  Backyard was a nice size, big enough for kids to play in comfortably but not too big to take care of.

The associate I spoke with said that they had reduced the home 8% off a base price of $379,900 and then added the upgrades to make it a “deal” at $361K and change.   Not quite deal enough I’m afraid.  Trust me when I tell you that $361K is not the best deal.

When we were done with our tour of the home, I asked him “so what’s the real deal, what price can you get me on this home?”  He said that he could probably get another $5K off but that was all he could muster.  All he could muster but what about the General Sales Manager?  What could he/she do?

My bet is that I could get at least another $5K off of the additional $5K he offered maybe even more.  I would ask for more.  My price would be much lower than $361K.

This home is costing the builder money everyday it sits unsold as improved lots are taxed at a different rate than unimproved lots.  Winter is coming.  They want to sell this home.

Need Someone to Help You Get the Best Deal?

Give me a call and let’s go look at this completed home ready for a 30 day close.  Consider using the builders’ lender, that’s where the incentives get really good.  Read this article about the importance of being represented when purchasing a new home in the Sacramento region.
