“Do I Need A Realtor To Buy A New Home?”
Your Questions Answered!
When I check my statistics, “do I need a Realtor to buy a new home?” is one of the most prominent search terms that people find me for. I wrote an article in September about this very topic but I thought I’d cover it again as it is an important question.
The answer boils down to one of trust. Who can you trust to ensure you get the best representation and the best deal possible on your new home?
This question is easy to answer and I will explain why it’s important. Right now, it’s easier to get a good deal in new homes than in resale homes.

New Homes Report – Rocklin & Roseville New Homes
Good News In New Construction
Yesterday afternoon, I went out to preview some new homes in Fiddyment Farms, Westpark and Crocker Ranch in Roseville and Whitney Ranch in Rocklin. I was preparing for a buyer who has an interest out there so I visited 11 communities in these areas.
To the community, I heard great things about the new housing market. The tax incentives that have been offered both by the State of California and the federal government have helped the new housing market locally in a big way. It’s the first time in a couple of years that I’ve heard encouraging news from sales consultants in new home communities. That said, they are instructed to put on the best “face” possible. It enhances their negotiating position making you think they don’t need the sale. It’s part of the new home game.
It’s important to understand that these associates have been very well trained to ask questions that will encourage you to say “yes”. They are very sharp, especially those who have made it this far in this market. Don’t go unrepresented!
None of the communities I visited had a large amount of standing inventory. That’s been the case in the Sacramento region now for the last year and a half.
