New Homes in Whitney Ranch, Rocklin

Quick Move In Special at Sierra Sky by Shea Homes

I got a call from a potential buyer looking for a new construction home on a larger lot so I called around a couple of communities where I have relationships and found this quick move in special.

Google map of the location! Click here.

This is a very nice brand new home without the competition of the resales and the delays of short sales including all the warranties and awesome customer service that Shea Homes is famous for.

This home is currently priced at $450,000 but the sales associate said that they were taking offers as, with it completed, it’s costing more to carry it in their inventory.  That said, it’s the only inventory home they have.

If you’re interested in this one or have further questions, please feel free to contact me.

Thanks for watching!

The Secret To Buying A Home In Sacramento

Multiple Offers Making It Tough On Buyers

With some buyers making 15 to 30 offers on existing homes throughout the region without getting one accepted, buyer frustration is at an all time high.

I’ve made offers for some of my clients $15,000 to $20,000 over list only to get beat out by either another offer or the listing agents client. ( call me if you have a question on this )

There is one sure fire way to still get a great deal on a home and not compete with anyone in the process.

Sound too much like 2007?  Well it’s here and it’s a strategy that I’m advising all of my clients to consider.

I’ve worked with two buyers who have taken this advice and have been able to comfortably buy a very nice home, in better shape than ANY foreclosed or short sale home on the market.

What is this $64,000 idea?  Read on!

It’s the 4th Quarter in New Homes!

It’s Bargain Time at the New Home Builders!

The fourth quarter of the year is always the best time to buy a new home.  I was out in Westpark, the Roseville master planned community, today and one of the sales associates from Lennar, a friend I’ve known now for a couple of years says to me “it’s October, bring me some buyers, we’re making deals”.  That can be said for all the homebuilders in the Sacramento region right now.

I visited communities at Pulte, Centex and Lennar today and there are some good deals out there.  All of the associates always quote higher than they are supposed to, or authorized to, but I know from my experience in new homes that we can get a better deal.

Don’t Buy a New Home Without Me

I’ve got one year of experience working for one of the largest builders in the nation, Pulte Homes, Inc.  I love this company, they build a GREAT home.  Thing is, most of the builders in this area build a great home so then it comes down to one thing, PRICE!  What they tell you and what they tell me are two different things especially considering they KNOW I know what and who they are dealing with.  I can get you the best deal on a new home in the Sacramento region.

Not many agents, and I dare you to find another, have my experience in resale, the sale of existing homes, and in new homes.  They are out there but are hard to find.  Don’t let someone without experience in new homes cost you money.

Get the Best Deal on a New Home in Sacramento

Call me, let me know what you’re looking for and if it exists, I’ll find it.  Then I’ll get you the best deal.  

Why Buy New?

There is a big difference between buying new and buying resale.  Right now in resale, you can get a more awesome deal than you can in new homes.  If price were all that mattered between the two, then resale is the way to go.  But, there are other considerations when buying that you must take into account.

New Homes have Warranties, Most Existing Homes Do Not

New homes are warrantied out the wazoo.  1 year fit and finish and 10 year structural are common to all national builders.  By the way, I recommend all national builders.  Be very careful when buying from a local builder.  They may not be financially solvent that this could be risky to your long term peace of mind and security.  There are some national builders that aren’t solvent either.  Don’t know who is national and who is not?  CALL ME!

The important thing is DON’T BUY A NEW HOME WITHOUT ME!  No matter what your experience is in new homes, no matter how many you’ve purchased, you will pay more without me.  Nuf said!
