FAQ
How do you evaluate whether a new construction premium is justified versus resales?
By modeling total cost of ownership over 7-10 years: purchase price, maintenance, energy savings, warranty coverage, and appreciation projections. New builds often carry a 10-15% premium, but lower maintenance and modern systems can offset that. Developer reputation and neighborhood trajectory factor heavily.
What contract terms do most buyers overlook that create significant financial exposure?
Price escalation clauses, ambiguous completion timelines, limited deposit protections, and restrictive cancellation terms. Binding arbitration, specification substitution language, and warranty exclusions all require scrutiny before signing.
What's the most effective strategy for negotiating value with developers?
Incentives vary by project phase and market conditions. Early-phase buyers often have upgrade leverage; later buyers find more flexibility on price or closing credits. Tracking developer inventory and pricing history identifies the best negotiation windows for structural upgrades and financing incentives.
