With easy access to research tools, prospective new home buyers are often gathering their own information and do not feel the need for an agent. I Barbara, understand this and therefore I am willing to PAY YOU for your business on your New Home Construction deal.

Here’s how it works with me: Builders assume the use of a real estate agent when purchasing a home and therefore the agents commission is included in the price of every new home in Florida, whether you use and agent or not! Here is where I come in. I am willing to give you a cash back buyer rebate just for allowing me to be your Realtor. The benefits of using me far exceed the cash back rebate. You will also receive expert knowledge to guide you through the home buying process and help the deal go smoothly and as quickly as it can. The rebate will be paid at closing for you to use however you see fit.

Three essential things to remember for new construction home buyers:

  1. Undoubtedly, the builder’s agents and site agents are looking out for the builder’s best interests. I think you should have someone doing the same for you! I have worked with essentially every major builder in Jacksonville, FL and surrounding cities, making me familiar with each builder’s policies and reputations, as well as their communities and amenities over the 18 years in the industry.
  2. As stated by the Fair Housing Act (FHA), it is illegal for builders to release home buyers from paying the buyers agent commission or to change the terms of the sale in any way. Which means, they will NOT negotiate the buyers agent commission off the price of the home.
  3. Builders include buyer agent’s commission in the price of every new construction home, therefore the use of an agent will not increase your costs in any way, it’s already included.

I fully represent you and are here to guide you throughout your home buying process. I’d love to show you all the home models, help you get familiarized with the area, be your guide through financing, or any other area you need help with. I have extensive knowledge, wisdom, and experience in real estate and mighty fine negotiating skills to help save you a small fortune in the process as well wherever possible. Where else can you receive true “full service” and get paid for doing so?

Frequently Asked Questions About New Construction Home Rebates

What is a new construction home rebate?

A new construction home rebate is a cash back program in which a Realtor shares part of the buyer agent commission with you at closing. On this page, Barbara Cockrell of One Realty Corp. describes an exclusive rebate / discount program for buyers purchasing a new construction home in any community with any builder.

Does using a buyer's agent increase the price of a new construction home?

No. As explained on this page, builders include the buyer agent's commission in the price of every new construction home in Florida, so the use of an agent does not increase your costs — it is already included whether you use an agent or not.

Can the builder simply take the buyer agent commission off the price instead?

According to the page, the Fair Housing Act (FHA) makes it illegal for builders to release home buyers from paying the buyer agent commission or to change the terms of the sale in any way, which means they will not negotiate the buyer agent commission off the price of the home.

When is the rebate paid, and how can I use it?

The page states that the rebate is paid at closing for you to use however you see fit.
