Building or buying a new home is one of the most exciting things your family will ever do. A blank slate, finishes you actually chose, a home that fits how you live right now. I know new construction in this area like the back of my hand, and I am right beside you to make the whole thing feel as good as it should.
New construction is its own world, and knowing your way around it is what keeps the experience exciting instead of overwhelming. Here is where I come in.
I help you see the full picture early. The home in the show suite is usually dressed in upgrades, so I help you understand what is included and where the extras add up, before you fall for the marble you did not budget for.
I know where there is room to play. With new builds, the fun is often in the choices: upgrades, lot selection, finishes, timing. I know where you can negotiate and where you cannot, so you get the most out of every decision.
I read the contract so you do not have to stress over it. New construction agreements have their own language around deposits, timelines, and change orders. I walk you through every line so you always feel sure of what you are signing.
I give your new home a second set of eyes. Even brand new homes deserve a careful walkthrough. I guide you through the pre-drywall and final walkthroughs and catch the little things, so move-in day is pure excitement.
I know the builders and the neighbourhoods. Thirty plus years here means I know which builders deliver, which areas are right for families, and where your home will hold its value down the road.
As co-owner of Mayflower Contracting Co., I understand a home from the studs out. When I walk a build with you, I notice the things that matter long after you move in: how it is framed, how it is finished, and whether the price matches the quality. It is a perspective almost no other agent in this market can offer, and it means you get to relax into the fun parts while I handle the rest.
First, we talk. About what your family needs, your budget, and your timeline. The best time to bring me in is early, ideally before your first show home visit.
Then we start viewing the spec builds, we consider neighborhoods, inclusions, finishes etc!
I handle the contract and the negotiation, reviewing everything and making sure you understand it before you sign.
And I stay with you all the way through the build and the closing, so even on the busy weeks, you always know what is happening next.
I work with new construction buyers across Fredericton, Oromocto, and the CFB area. If you’re thinking about buying a new build, let’s start the conversation!
If your family is posting to CFB Gagetown, a new build can absolutely be part of the move. I am BGRS and SIRVA registered and grew up in a military family, so I know what relocating with kids actually feels like. Ask me how buying new construction can fit your relocation benefits and your timeline.
Yes. Having your own REALTOR® means someone is reviewing the contract, guiding the choices, and looking out for your family through the build and the closing, start to finish.
In many new construction purchases, the builder covers the buyer's agent commission, so it often costs you nothing out of pocket. It depends on the builder and the deal, so just ask me about your specific situation. If commission is not included by the builder, industry standard is 2.5% – which is worth its weight in gold to have help from someone who knows the nuances of this world and what to look out for in contracts!
A new build is designed around how your family actually lives, built to current energy standards (which usually means lower bills), and it comes with a new home warranty. You get to start fresh, exactly the way you want it.
A build usually takes around 6-12 months once construction starts, depending on the size, the finishes, and the season. I help you set a realistic timeline you can plan your family around.
Because my family builds homes and I am raising my own family too. I understand how a home is built and what families really need from one, so you get an expert who is genuinely in your corner and just as excited about this as you are.
The best time to bring me in is early in your home search. The first conversation is free and there is no pressure, just two moms talking about what is possible. Reach out and let's make your new build everything you are picturing.
