Want to know how your builder stacks up against others visit the Better Business Bureau. If you are preparing to purchase a new home from the ground up, as a Texas Realtor, I strongly recommend using the services of a certified construction inspector. Many buyer?s forego a home inspection because they are persuaded by a builder?s rep. not to bother with this expense since their home is covered bumper-to-bumper for the first year. Don?t fall for this trick. These representative are selling a product and are paid to move the builder?s inventory of homes. If you bought a new home without the help of an El Paso Buyer?s Agent you were at a huge disadvantage. The house does not cost more when you are represented by a licensed El Paso REALTOR whose job it is to protect your interest. Many first time buyers are dazzled by all the ?freebees? that they are made to feel guilt-ridden about hiring their own agent. I?ve been representing buyers since 1994 and have learned that builder?s use this psychology to ?create a sense of indebted or obligation by marketing free appliances, free landscaping, up to 6% in bonuses or benefits.? What they don?t tell buyers is that if the buyer uses the builder?s preferred lender the builder is already saving about 3% (in many cases the builder has a financial interest in the preferred lender).
Here is how El Paso East side Builder?s stack up according to BBB in last 3 years:
