What to Know About Buying New Construction Homes in Georgia

by Sharon McKeithan

Thinking about buying a brand-new home? New construction offers exciting benefits—but there are also things you need to know before signing the dotted line.

  • You Still Need an Agent
    The onsite agent works for the builder, not you. I protect your best interests, help with negotiations, and make sure your contract is fair.

  • Understand Builder Incentives
    Many builders offer closing cost credits, rate buy-downs, or design upgrades—but only if you know how to ask.

  • Ask About Community Growth
    Is the neighborhood still being developed? Will there be amenities like a pool, walking trails, or retail nearby?

  • Always Get an Inspection
    Just because it’s new doesn’t mean it’s perfect. A third-party inspection is a smart move to protect your investment.

New construction is a great option for many buyers—especially in fast-growing areas around Metro Atlanta. If you're considering it, I’d be happy to guide you through every step.
