Should You Use an Agent for New Construction? 🏡 This Moment Changed EverythingThis video wasn’t planned… but it needed to be recorded.After leaving a final walkthrough for a closing, I had one of those moments that makes you pause, breathe, and remember why you keep showing up — even when the year has been hard.A buyer signed a new construction contract and listed me as their agent… without ever speaking to me first.
Why? Because they had been watching my YouTube videos.That moment led me to reflect on something I say often but still see buyers get wrong 👇🏾🚨 You are NOT saving money by skipping buyer representation in new construction.This is real, raw real estate — the behind-the-scenes moments you don’t see on TV or social media.If you’re buying new construction, relocating to Georgia, or wondering whether you really need an agent… this video is for you.📲 Need Buyer Representation in Georgia?Schedule a consultation:

Should sellers automatically say no to FHA buyers because of appraisal concerns? 🤯
I get this question ALL the time — especially from homeowners worried about repairs, delays, or deals falling apart.In this video, I’m breaking down:
✔️ Why FHA appraisals get a bad reputation
✔️ What changed after the 2008 market crash
✔️ How appraisal management companies (AMCs) work
✔️ Why sellers usually don’t receive appraisal reports
✔️ What happens when a home appraises low
✔️ Real FHA repair examples (wood rot, steps, outlets, safety items)
✔️ Why sellers shouldn’t automatically dismiss government-backed loans
✔️ How FHA, VA, USDA, and Conventional loans really compare
✔️ When it might make sense to limit loan types
✔️ The behind-the-scenes work agents do to get deals CLOSEDLow appraisals and repair requests are NOT exclusive to FHA loans.
The difference is strategy, preparation, and experience — not the loan type.If your home is priced correctly, marketed properly, and in livable condition, FHA buyers deserve the same consideration as any other buyer.📲 Need Help Buying or Selling?📞Schedule a consultation ➡️ https://calendly.com/soldbynat/15min
