Definitely hire a realtor! A good realtor will have relationships with the builders that they have built over the years and be able to get you a better price. To be able to tell you about the neighborhood and if it is a smart buy or not. To look over the contract and make sure that you are protected. To be with you during the design process to help keep you on budget. To tell you certain upgrades that are worth the money up front or to do after because a realtor like myself has done hundreds of builds and knows what worth it or not. To go through all of the electrical plans and make suggestions on low voltage and high voltage wiring upgrades. To go to all of the meetings with the builder if you are out of town and cannot be there. To recommend a lender that will be able to get you the best deal and make sure that you are protected. To do videos for you if you are out of town and check on the progress. You can also do your own taxes or represent yourself in court but you don’t. You have the professional help you with it. These are all just things in the beginning of the build process. I would need another 5 pages to give you all of the reasons to hire a realtor.
@@wannaliveindallas I think if you’re building it yourself just get good sub contractors. Most contractors will tell you what’s the best and worst things to in your house.
