Why hire Michelle Cecchini ?

No Extra Cost to You: Usually, the builder pays the buyer’s agent’s commission, not you. That means you get professional guidance and advocacy at no additional expense.

To Protect Your Best Interests: The builder’s sales team works for the builder—not for you. Michelle ensures your priorities come first by helping you choose the right lot, pointing out resale considerations, guiding you on smart upgrades, and keeping the build process on track so nothing important is overlooked.

Guidance on Pricing & Upgrades: Michelle knows which upgrades add value and which are profit- makers for the builder. They can help you avoid overspending on items that won’t benefit your resale value.

Market Knowledge: As a local agent, Michelle understands the surrounding neighborhoods, schools, traffic patterns, and resale trends to help you choose the right community, not just the nicest model home.

Negotiation Power: Even though new construction pricing is less flexible than resale, Michelle knows where to negotiate—builder incentives, closing costs, or upgrades.

Construction & Inspection Oversight: Michelle can recommend independent inspectors to check the home at key stages of construction. This ensures issues are caught early rather than becoming problems after moving in.

Timeline & Process Management: New builds come with long timelines, change orders, and builder deadlines. Michelle keeps track of these and ensures you don’t miss critical decision or inspection windows.

Resale Perspective: Michelle looks beyond the excitement of “new” and considers how the home will perform on resale, location within the community, lot positioning, and layout choices.

Peace of Mind: Buying new construction can be overwhelming. Having an advocate means you don’t have to navigate the building process alone.

Market Smart. Client-focused. Always.
