Builder guides — Tampa Bay & Sarasota

In short

Guides to the major builders selling around Tampa Bay and Sarasota: where they build, verified incentives (and whether they require the builder's lender), and how to register with your own broker before your first visit.

Buying from a builder works differently from buying a resale home. The sales team on site works for the builder, incentives come with their own conditions, and most builders expect your agent to register you before your first visit. These guides cover each major builder selling around Tampa Bay and Sarasota.

Which builders does Bridges Global cover?

Each guide covers where the builder is selling, current verified incentives, whether they require the builder's lender, and how to register before your first visit.

Why register before visiting a builder?

The builder's sales team represents the builder. Most builders require your broker to register you before your first visit or call, or they may not recognize your agent.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need my own agent to buy new construction?

You can buy directly from a builder, but its sales team represents the builder. To have your own representation, register with your broker before your first visit or call.
