If you’ve been house hunting in Las Vegas lately, you’ve probably noticed something: finding the right home at the right price isn’t as easy as it sounds. Maybe the layout doesn’t work, maybe it needs too many upgrades, or maybe it just doesn’t feel like the one.
That’s why more buyers are turning their attention to new construction homes and right now, there’s real opportunity in this part of the market.
Builders Are Motivated To Sell
Many builders currently have completed homes sitting on the market more than usual. That’s inventory they need to move before starting their next round of builds. The result? Builders are stepping up with serious offers to attract buyers. We’re seeing the highest rate of builder incentives in five years.
According to industry data, over two-thirds of builders are offering some form of buyer incentive and that could mean real savings for you.
Price Reductions and Perks You Can Use
One of the most common incentives right now is a price reduction. Nearly 40% of builders are cutting prices, with average savings of around 5%.
To put that in perspective, a $500,000 home with a 5% discount saves you $25,000 money that could be used for upgrades, furnishings, or simply easing your monthly payments.
Even if the price isn’t negotiable, builders are offering other financial perks, such as:
- Interest rate buy-downs
- Help with closing costs
- Credits for design center upgrades
- HOA or warranty coverage for the first year
These deals aren’t always advertised, and they vary builder to builder, but they’re out there and they’re better than they’ve been in years.
Why a New Build Might Be Right for You
Besides the financial benefits, new homes come with lifestyle perks that older homes often can’t match, including:
- Modern, open floorplans
- Energy-efficient systems and appliances
- Smart home features already installed
- Fewer maintenance concerns
If you’re looking for a place that fits your lifestyle and doesn’t require immediate repairs or renovations, a brand-new home might be the solution.
Don’t Go In Alone, Bring Your Own Agent
One important tip: always bring your own real estate agent when visiting model homes or talking to builder reps. The sales team at the new home site works for the builder not for you.
When you work with your own agent, you get:
- Someone to analyze incentives and make sure you’re getting real value
- A negotiator on your side to secure the best deal
- Guidance through the process, from offer to close, with your interests as the top priority
