Some
Straight Talk About Home Buying
We've talked with consumers
across the United States about buying a home. Many consumers made it clear
that they want better information about the home buying process.
They told us that this
would increase their confidence in getting the home, and the home-buying
experience, they wanted. Many consumers are concerned about unprofessional
builders who don't know what they're doing, or who won't stand behind their
product once the sale has gone through. While this doesn't happen very
often, every home buyer wants to be certain it never happens to them.
If you're like the
people we have talked with, you have some definite ideas about what should
and shouldn't happen when you buy a new home.
You expect the builder
or sales agent to listen to you, hear what you want and present you with
clear, understandable options.
You want pricing information
that's up front, complete and ensures you won't get any expensive "surprises"
later on.
You don't want home
buying to be a game between you and a pushy sales person looking for a
fast sale.
You want to know that
the person building your home is committed to your satisfaction - that
you aren't just another "number", but a valued customer.
We believe that when
you buy a home, you shouldn't settle for anything less than this. And if
any builder or sales agent you talk to can't meet this standard, you should
take your business elsewhere.
For home buyers, it
all comes down to a few important points. Professional home builders have
the skills and knowledge it takes to "do the job right". A solid track
record and experience are essential qualifications. And most importantly,
the builder must be honest, fair-minded and committed to customer service.
We couldn't agree more.
There are many established
home builders who can meet these expectations and who would value the opportunity
to treat you properly. So don't be afraid to shop around.
