Do you work for the builder?

No. We work for you, not the builder. The builder pays our fee, but every call we make is for you: the right home, the best deal and a smooth closing.

The people in the model home work for the builder. We are not affiliated with any homebuilder, and we help buyers with many builders, so we can tell you how one compares with another.
