New Construction Condo Projects Hit The Market

Buyers looking for new construction condos are in luck: A batch of new projects will be releasing units in January and February.

I’m not on the sales teams for these projects, but can represent you independently. This means I can get you started with a loan preapproval and walk you through the contract. I will also review the very thick new home package/disclosures with you; and work with the sales team to make sure things go smoothly for your move-in (among other things).

So check out what’s on tap, and give me a shout if you’d like to explore your options within any of these projects:
