The builder's sales rep works for the builder and is focused on selling homes at the builder's price and terms. Your AT Home Texas agent works for you, protecting your interests through the contract, the build, and closing.

It depends on the builder. Many builders offer Compensation to buyer agents, and we'll walk you through exactly how it works for your situation before you sign anything.

Often, yes. Many builders require your agent to be with you on your first visit or registered before you tour. Contact us before visiting a model home so you don't lose your right to representation.

Yes. New construction contracts are usually written by the builder and often favor the builder on timelines, deposits, and changes. We help you understand the terms before you commit.

Usually, though it may not always be on price. Builders often negotiate through incentives like rate buydowns, closing cost help, upgrades, or design center credits. We help you compare offers and find the best value.

Absolutely. New doesn't mean perfect. We recommend independent inspections at key stages, such as pre-drywall and before closing, so issues get fixed while the builder is still on the hook. If construction is already complete we still recommend a home inspection from an independant home inspector.

Builders often tie incentives to their preferred lender, which can be a great deal. It's still smart to compare. We can help you weigh the incentive against rates and terms from other lenders. We have MANY trusted lender contacts if you need lenders for your comparison.

A completed home is move-in ready. A home under construction is underway with a set floor plan, and you may still pick some finishes. A to-be-built home lets you choose the lot, plan, and options but takes the longest to finish

We help you compare builders, floor plans, lot locations, HOA rules, and long-term resale potential across Greenville, Royse City, Caddo Mills, Quinlan, Commerce, and beyond, so you're not just choosing the first model home you walk into.
