New construction vs. resale: the trade-offs

New construction means a warranty, modern energy efficiency, low maintenance, and the chance to pick finishes — but you may pay a premium, wait on a build timeline, and negotiate differently (builders rarely cut price but will add incentives and upgrades). Resale is often faster, cheaper per square foot, and in established neighborhoods with mature trees. The right call depends on your timeline and priorities.

Use a buyer’s agent on a new build (it’s free)

Here’s what most new-construction buyers don’t realize: the friendly agent in the builder’s model home works for the builder. Bringing your own Momentum agent costs you nothing — the builder pays the commission either way — and you get someone in your corner on the contract, upgrades, lender choice, inspections, and walkthrough.
