Receive 2.75% Of The Total Sale Price Back At Closing On Any New Construction Home, Through Any Builder, Anywhere In The State of Texas!

Texas is a great state to buy or build a home. Homebuyer rebates are not offered in every state, but Texas allows rebates to be offered legally. This is just one of many great incentives available to smart homebuyers, like you.

When a new home is built or sold in Texas, the realtor who represents the buyer typically makes a commission of 3% of the sales price of the home. Texas Homes Two Percent Rebate simply rebates the buyer 2.75% of the sale price of the home which comes from the commission the builder pays the real estate broker. I keep ½% for facilitating the transaction. Hence, over two-thirds of the realtor’s commission is RETURNED back to you, the homebuyer. This applies to any new construction home; through any Texas home builder or contractor. The credit can either be applied to your closing costs, used to pay for upgrades, lot premiums, appliance packages, reducing the price of the home, buying down points for a better interest rate or with lender approval, as a check cut to you after closing. It is your choice!

WHAT IS A NEW CONSTRUCTION HOMEBUYER REBATE?

he internet has simply changed the way people buy homes. As a buyer, you have probably done a ton of research on your own, zoning in on the communities and even the homes you like. So, why hire an agent? Well, even if you are a great negotiator (which many of my clients are), having a realtor who shares the commission with you is a great reason to do so. In addition, it’s always good to have a professional on your team in the event that issues arise with the builder. That’s what I do. I work to negotiate on your behalf, review contracts, run interference if ever there is an issue with the builder and then share a large percentage of my commission with you, the buyer. You’ve done a lot of the work already so I truly feel that my buyers deserve it!

Rebates are legal and allowable in Texas by the Texas Real Estate Commission as well as the Department of Justice – and can be used to cover closing costs, pay for upgrades, lot premiums or even to buy down the price of the home. We can even cut you a check after closing which you can use for anything you like!

HOW MUCH IS THE REBATE ON NEW CONSTRUCTION HOME PURCHASES?

When a new Construction home is sold in Texas, the realtor who represents the buyer typically makes a commission of 3% of the sales price of the home. However, when you work with Texas Homes, I offer you a rebate of 2.75% of the total sale price on new construction homes – through any Texas homebuilder – so basically, I keep only ½% on any new construction home purchase! I credit my buyers the remaining portion of the commission paid by the builder to represent you. The credit can either be applied to the buyer’s closing costs, pre-paids, lot premiums, appliance packages, lowering the price of the home, upgrades, or, I can cut you a check after closing, whichever you prefer. This rebate comes from my commission and does not interfere with any incentives offered by the builder to the buyer. It is simply money that would remain in the builder’s pocket; if you weren’t using a Realtor. It’s a way for you, the buyer, to tap into money you would not otherwise have access to when buying a home. Any bonuses paid to the Broker or any commissions in excess of 3% from the builder or seller are not a part of the rebate to the buyer. Rebates are based on the sale price of the home purchased by the buyer.

HOW MUCH CAN I SAVE IF I LIST MY HOME WITH YOU?

Traditional Realtors charge 6% to sell a home. 3% goes to them and 3% goes to the agent who brings the buyer (Typically, that’s how it plays out…seldom does the agent who lists your home also bring the buyer, but it can happen). What I do differently is charge the seller only 2% to list any home priced up to $400k (a savings of 1% compared to what most agents charge) For homes priced OVER $400k, I will only charge 1.5% commission to sell your home. That’s a savings of 1.5% total! For homes priced $700K and up I only charge 1% to list your home, a 2% savings – If you buy AND sell with me, think of all the money you’ll save. Most of my clients who buy and sell save an average of about $18,000 total by using my rebate program. That’s a NICE savings!

HOW CAN I BE SURE THAT I’LL RECEIVE THE REBATE? IS IT GUARANTEED?

Yes, you can feel comfortable that you will receive the rebate from me. Before you sign a contract with a builder, you and I will enter into a Buyer’s Representation Agreement, which spells out the terms of the rebate. This is a binding contract and holds me responsible to provide you with the rebate, as promised.

DOES THE BUILDER GIVE ME THE SAME PRICE AND INCENTIVES IF I USE A REALTOR THAT THEY WOULD OFFER IF I REPRESENTED MYSELF?

Yes, the pricing and incentives are the same whether you use a Realtor or not. This is another misconception people have about rebates. The builder must offer someone with an agent the same price they would offer someone without an agent. Otherwise, it would be discriminatory. They would be setting themselves up for a lawsuit. Also, how many Realtors do you think would refer business to a builder if they found out that their clients were paying higher pricing for doing so? None! Builders allocate 3% to pay a Realtor on every home they build. This comes from their marketing budget. Therefore, if a buyer is not represented by an agent, the extra 3% merely stays in their pocket. Wouldn’t you rather it be given back to you?
