For the client that\u2019s in a hurry, a quick move-in spec home might be the perfect solution. Professionally designed inside and out, our quick move-in options are finished\u2014or nearly finished\u2014and ready to close in as little as 30 days. These homes offer a number of benefits for buyers that purchase them and, as a result, can also be advantageous to the real estate agents who sell them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s explore these advantages for both you and your buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of a spec home for clients &amp; agents<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"videoWrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"642\" height=\"361\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Bv-I3314b-U?rel=0&amp;?VQ=HD1080\" title=\"Vista del Verde III Community in Avondale, AZ\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Clients can see what they\u2019re buying.\u00a0<\/strong>Not everyone can envision what a home will look like solely based on glancing at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.richmondamerican.com\/campaigns\/7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">floor plans<\/a> or walking through similar models. For the buyer who says, \u201cI know what I like when I see it,\u201d a finished spec could afford them the opportunity to tour the exact home they\u2019re interested in. They can walk the plan, measure rooms for their furniture, and even begin plotting how they might decorate their brand-new living spaces. <br><strong><em>The agent advantage:<\/em><\/strong> A finished home will likely be an easier sell for you. The \u201cI know what I like when I see it\u201d buyers might be more hesitant to make a commitment if they can\u2019t see the home in person\u2014an already finished spec home can help eliminate that challenge!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pricing may be simplified.\u00a0<\/strong>The freedom that comes with personalizing a to-be-built home also brings with it some variability in pricing. Base prices often don\u2019t include upgrades, lot premiums, or fixture and finish costs, and these extras can add up quickly. Choosing a completed spec home allows a buyer to know right off the bat what the total price tag of the home will be, additional costs and all. No unfortunate surprises here!<br><strong><em>The agent advantage: <\/em><\/strong>There\u2019s less guesswork on your end as well. Clear pricing makes it easier for you to help your clients stay within their budget, without having to scramble for estimates. You can immediately present them with the cost of the home, potentially saving you both from touring homes that are out of reach.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Interest rates are more predictable.&nbsp;<\/strong>Closing sooner means buyers can typically lock in a rate without the need for an extended rate lock. Additionally, they may be able to take advantage of limited-time <a href=\"https:\/\/www.richmondamerican.com\/campaigns\/1981\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">special offers<\/a> available in their area.<br><strong><em>The agent advantage: <\/em><\/strong>As you probably know, fluctuating and high interest rates are often a big reason why many potential homebuyers put off making a purchase. If you clients are able to quickly secure financing that works with their budget (and can feel confident knowing their rate won\u2019t change), there\u2019s likely a lower chance of the sale falling through.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Moving Day is in sight.&nbsp;<\/strong>A shorter timeline may be appealing to a variety of buyers, especially those relocating from out of town or out of state. There\u2019s also greater certainty about the closing date. While it\u2019s possible something will come up to postpone a signing\u2014due to buyer, seller, or lender issues\u2014you generally won\u2019t be subject to events like weather or permitting delays.<br><strong><em>The agent advantage:<\/em><\/strong>The sooner your buyer can move in, the sooner your commission check can land in your pocket! Plus, when you sign up for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.richmondamerican.com\/agent-resources\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Richmond American account<\/a>, your clients are able to tour communities and listings with or without you, at no risk to your commission.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>It\u2019s a brand-new, professionally <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.richmondamerican.com\/agent-blog\/find-beautiful-curated-homes-for-your-clients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>curated<\/strong><\/a><strong> home. <\/strong>Gone are the days when resale was the only option for buying a home quickly.
