On this Windemere Verrado home (3816 Highbury Way San Ramon CA)

Asked Mon Mar 17 2008, 14:03 by dm3 - San Ramon - Home Buying - 4 answers

Kevin answered:

AJ,

You mentioned the deal for new home at $250-260/sf with options. The question is how big the house is? In general, the bigger the house is, the lower cost per sf it will be. So if it is a 4000sf house, then it is a normal price though. But if it is a 3000sf house, then it definitely a great deal. - Thu Mar 20 2008, 19:57

Looking for a local agent for buying San Ramon, Windemere new house

Kevin answered:

Yes, I agree. I have very specific models in my mind which fit into our family needs, and will stick to them. - Wed Feb 27 2008, 14:22

Have you personally view that house ? - Wed Feb 27 2008, 13:38

Our understanding is that in order to negotiate with the builder for a best price for us, you(agent) need to have some sale data in the past 3-4 months as a baseline for negotiation. - Tue Feb 26 2008, 19:55

I plan to interview with 3-4 agent and then committed to one of them. I am a serious buyer and just want to hire an agent to do the legwork and negotiation for us.

If you can email me a list of Lennar home sold in the past 3-4 months, it would be a great help for me to make the decision faster. From a buyer's view of point, we want to see our agent have the willing and ability to find out necessary data in order to protect our best interest as a first-time home buyer. - Tue Feb 26 2008, 19:46

Joanne,

Sure, I will email you later. - Tue Feb 26 2008, 19:16

"Hi Kevin, What's the reason that you chose Windemere?"

1. We like brand new house.
2. The school is good. - Tue Feb 26 2008, 19:12

We left our name there when we view Paloma Community, but did NOT talk to anyone or sign up any form when we viewed Escalante, since we plan to hire an agent. - Tue Feb 26 2008, 13:25

If an agent can't not represent us, we can hire an agent as an consultant to provide support while we deal with the builder directly, we can do it at some rate that both of us agreed upon and fair to each party. - Tue Feb 26 2008, 11:44

Thanks for all your responses.

Are you also looking for a house in Windemere or know someone doing the same thing? I'd like to have more discussion with you if not too much trouble for you.

Dear Adam, Aj
Yes, I agree that we need a local agent who can pull all the comps, especially the Lennar new home soled in the past couple of months, and do the negotiation based on those data. That's what exactly we are expecting from a local agent, besides the legwork.
We have been running to Windemere every weekend for a while and know exactly what we want, but just need someone to pull the comps and do the hard negotiation for us.
We will be Windemere this weekend again and may be able to talk to you in person.
Here is my email: kevin3376 at gmail dot com
Would you please pull some comps (especially new Lennar home sold in past months) for us so we can review it before we meet? - Tue Feb 26 2008, 10:34
