One of the most common questions we are asked is “Do I need
a Realtor to represent me when purchasing new construction?” The answer is pretty simple. While it is not required that you have
representation, a Realtor can play a valuable role in your purchase of new
construction. Whether you are buying new
construction or an existing home in the St. Charles County or greater St. Louis area, The Boehmer Team realizes the importance and
value of the Realtor in every step of your home purchase.
Building your own home is an exciting yet sometimes
complicated process. There are many details to consider - from choosing the
right builder to calculating costs and finding the best community for your
needs. The Washington Post says when, “buying a new constructed home, an experienced real estate agent is essential.”
The Boehmer Team is specially trained in the new construction field. We
have worked with builders in the St. Louis County and St. Charles County areas
of Missouri for years. We will work with you and your builder towards a smooth
process every step of the way. A good real estate agent can make the new home
buying process a dream come true versus a job.
