How Builders Offering Incentives Can Lower Your Costs

Infographic shows builder incentives reaching 66% in August, the highest monthly figure from January through August.
 
Want to know the secret to getting the best deal on a home today? Spoiler alert: it’s new construction.
 
Right now, 66% of builders are offering incentives that can lower your overall cost of homeownership. That’s the highest in 5 years. And it’s a big deal.
 
The most common incentive is a price cut. And on average, they’re taking about 5% off the purchase price. On a $500K house, that’s a savings of $25K.
 
That could be enough to make the home you’ve been dreaming about more affordable than you think.
 
Curious how far today’s incentives could stretch your budget? Let’s connect so I can show you what builders are offering in our area.
