Will I Save Money If I Skip the Agent and Go Straight to the Builder?
It’s a tempting thought — especially if you’re building in Newark, Pataskala, or Granville, where new construction seems like a direct-to-builder process. You might even be asking yourself:
“If the builder already has a sales team, won’t I save money by skipping an agent?”
It’s a common assumption — but in most cases, skipping your own representation can cost more, not less.
Let’s Clear Up a Big Misconception
Builders do not reduce the price of a home if you don’t use your own agent. Their pricing is already set, and the commission is built into the marketing budget.
So if you go it alone, you’re just giving up the chance to have someone on your side — without getting any kind of discount in return.
What You’re Really Giving Up When You Skip an Agent
Here’s what my clients get when they work with me during a new build:
Unbiased Advice on Builders
Not all builders are created equal. I keep tabs on local reputation, quality control, timelines, and customer service — things a builder’s rep won’t openly discuss.
Help Understanding the Contract
Builder contracts often include strict timelines, non-refundable deposits, and penalty clauses. I help you interpret and negotiate the terms — and point out what to ask for.
Upgrade Strategy
Want that gourmet kitchen or finished basement? I’ll help you prioritize value-adding upgrades so you don’t overspend on things that won’t boost your resale.
A Bridge from Your Current Home
If you’re selling in New Albany to build in Granville or Pataskala, timing matters. I’ll help you structure both deals so you don’t get stuck without a place to live (or two mortgages at once).
Central Ohio is Booming — But Smart Navigation Matters
The Intel boom is bringing new attention to Licking County, with developments popping up quickly. While that’s exciting, it also means more builders competing for your business — and a wider range of quality and value.
Having a hyper-local advocate like me means you’re not buying into a builder’s marketing — you’re making a strategic real estate decision.
