Before you go to the model home, let's talk for 20 minutes: many builders ask that your agent come with you or register you from your first visit.

Before you visit the model home

The model-home salesperson works for the builder. These questions look after your side; get the answers in writing.

  1. What is your rule for working with my agent?

    Many builders ask that your agent come with you or register you on the first visit. Ask their rule before you leave your details.

  2. Can the PID be paid off at once?

    Some PIDs let you pay the balance and stop the yearly charge. Ask the balance and how many years are left.

  3. What does the incentive ask in return?

    Many incentives depend on using the builder's lender. You can choose the title company. Compare before you accept.
