Builder Incentives Worth Asking About

Builders regularly offer rate buydowns, closing cost credits of $5,000 to $20,000, design center upgrades, and waived lot premiums. These change frequently, so always ask what is currently available.

Important: bring your own Realtor the first time you visit a model home. If you register without an agent, the builder may not allow your Realtor to represent you later. Having your own agent costs you nothing.

New Construction vs Resale

New construction offers modern floor plans, energy efficiency, warranties, and custom finishes. Resale offers mature landscaping, lower CDD fees, and faster move-in. Check the latest Lakewood Ranch market update to compare.
