Good to Know

New Construction Questions, Answered

The questions every new construction buyer asks us — answered simply and honestly.

Can I visit a model home before choosing an agent?
Most builders ask that your agent register with you on your very first visit or first contact — and even filling out a builder's website form can count as first contact. To keep all your options open, reach out to us before that first visit. Registration takes two minutes and ensures you're represented from day one.
Can you really negotiate with builders?
Yes. Builders rarely cut base prices, but they negotiate aggressively on closing-cost credits, mortgage rate buydowns, free upgrades, appliances, blinds, fences, and more. Incentives change monthly — and inventory ("spec") homes near quarter-end carry the deepest deals.
Do I need a home inspection on a brand-new house?
Absolutely. County code inspections are minimums, not quality checks. We recommend two independent inspections: pre-closing, and an 11-month inspection before the builder's 12-month warranty expires.
How long does it take to build a new home in Tampa Bay?
A build-from-scratch home typically takes 6–12 months depending on the builder and community. Need to move sooner? Builders always have inventory homes — already under construction or finished — that can close in 30–60 days, often with the best incentives.
Which areas do you cover?
New construction communities across Pinellas, Pasco, and Hillsborough Counties — including St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Pinellas Park, Dunedin, Palm Harbor, New Port Richey, Trinity, Land O' Lakes, Wesley Chapel, Riverview, and Brandon — plus the beaches and coastal communities from Clearwater Beach to St. Pete Beach. If it's in the greater Tampa Bay area, we cover it.
Do you work with out-of-state buyers?
Yes — a large share of our clients relocate to Florida from other states, and we regularly handle the entire process remotely: video tours of communities and model homes, digital paperwork, and coordination from first call to closing.
What languages do you speak?
We're bilingual and proudly serve both English- and Russian-speaking communities across Tampa Bay. Мы говорим по-русски — visit our Russian-language page to learn more.
