David Weekley Homes buyer questions
Can I use my own agent when buying a David Weekley Homes home?
Yes. Like most production builders, David Weekley Homes works with buyer's agents and pays the agent's fee out of its own budget, not yours. The catch is timing: builders generally require your agent to be registered on your first visit to the sales office. Register with us before you go.
Does using a buyer's agent make a David Weekley Homes home cost more?
No. The builder sets its price whether or not you bring an agent, and the agent fee comes from the builder's marketing budget. With us, 65% of that fee comes back to you as a design center credit or a lower price, subject to your lender's approval.
What does a buyer's agent do on a new David Weekley Homes home?
The David Weekley Homes sales consultant represents David Weekley Homes. We represent you: we compare incentives across communities, review the builder's contract and addenda, push for better terms on price, lot premiums, upgrades and closing costs, and track construction through closing.
Do I have to use David Weekley Homes's preferred lender?
Usually not, but builders often tie their best incentives (rate buydowns, closing cost help) to their affiliated lender. We help you compare the builder's offer against an outside lender so you can see which actually costs less.
