With affordability still tight, many buyers are overlooking one option that could significantly reduce total purchase costs in 2026: new construction homes.
In this video, we explain how builder incentives, rate buydowns, closing cost credits, and pricing strategies may allow buyers to save thousands — even when resale homes appear cheaper at first glance. We also cover the trade-offs buyers need to understand, including location, timelines, and long-term costs.
This is not a blanket endorsement of new builds. It’s a strategic breakdown of when new construction can make financial sense — and when it doesn’t.
Buying a home isn’t just about the sticker price — it’s about total cost and long-term impact.
We help buyers evaluate builder incentives, financing structures, and resale alternatives so they can choose the option that actually protects their finances.
