Brand new homes in Tucson are currently available in all areas of the city. Builders offer homes in all price ranges and styles with a wide variety of features and finishes. Tucson home builders vary from large national builders, to regional builders, to small local or custom home builders. While each builder is willing to make certain adjustments in their design, for the best results, you will likely need the help of a professional REALTOR® when purchasing a new home.

When you purchase a new Tucson home for sale, you can rest assured that your home will last many years without needing big repairs or updates. In some cases, you'll have the freedom to make choices about what the home looks like and what kinds of features make up the property.

We know all of the builders, their products, their options, and how to properly put together the right package for you as a buyer.

Services Offered By Trusted Tucson REALTORS®

Every builder and their sales representatives know much, much more about the home building business then you will ever know. The builder and their sales reps' motive for building homes is profit: It's that simple. As such you need someone to help you make sure you don't overpay for your new home.

The team at Michael Oliver is very experienced and educated. We know how the home building business operates. We know what incentives the builders will give you. We also recognize when and where to negotiate for additional savings.

On top of that, we can also advise on the most appropriate lot location for your home. No two lots are the same, and lot selection significantly impacts your ability to re-sell the home in the future. We deal with builders every day and will be able to advise and protect your interests without question. But do you want to hear the best news? Allowing us to represent you is free!

REPRESENTATION IS FREE

The #1 reason buyers don't hire their own agent to negotiate their new home purchase is that they think it will cost them money, and it's simply not true. In fact, it won't cost you anything.

More than 60% of buyers on the Tucson real estate market use the services of a licensed REALTOR®. The builders want as big a piece of that market as possible. So as an incentive to buy a new house rather than an old one, they offer all buyers the same deal:

"If your REALTOR® is with you the first time you enter our sales center, we will allow them to represent you and negotiate against us. We will even pay them to do so!"

This means that you get all the benefits of having a licensed REALTOR® without any cost to you. Here's a real life example:

WHY DON'T MORE BUYERS USE A REALTOR®?

The #2 reason buyers don't hire a REALTOR® to represent them when buying a brand new home is overconfidence in their knowledge of the home buying process.

Most buyers think they know more about the process than they really do. When buying a new home, there are literally tens of thousands of options available to choose from. Some of these decisions are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Here are just a few of the key decisions you'll need to make on your new home purchase:

• Are lots with a view worth the premium the builder is charging?
  In our experience they are not, however every lot is different and needs to be evaluated individually. A buyer can quickly spend $25,000 to $150,000 on that "special" lot to then find out two years later when they want to sell the property their "premium" lot is only worth an extra $3,000 in the marketplace.

• What options do you need to have and what options can you live without?
  We don't mean this from a personal perspective, but rather a price range perspective. Certain price ranges require some features to be present. In high-end homes, finishes are very important. So it pays to upgrade your granite, appliances, and flooring to higher than average choices. The hard part here is knowing how upgraded your choice should be. Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and Viking all make quality appliances, but depending on home style and price range, only one of those choices is the correct one for your new home.

• Which builder should you choose?
  This is usually not considered as heavily as it should be, but the builder you choose not only will build your home but the entire neighborhood. If you choose the right builder, you will live in a neighborhood that speaks to you. If however, you choose the wrong builder, you may end up with a home you like in a neighborhood that you don't like at all. We know what the neighborhoods should look like when completed and if they will fit with you and your family's lifestyle.

• Do you know the proper final price range for the home?
  This is one that I think all buyers should consider. Every home has a price range that it should fall within if the buyer wants to be able to sell it in the future. You don't want to own the most expensive home in the neighborhood as that hurts your re-sale prospects. As a buyer, you need to know what that neighborhood and size of home should be priced at and stick with that for your budget.

When it comes to buying new homes, the Michael Oliver team has a tremendous amount of experience. We know all of the builders, their products, their options, and how to properly put together the right package for you as a buyer. We help first-time buyers through those buying estate level new homes, and have successfully handled those and every other type of new home sale in between.
