Most people think a newly built home costs more than an existing one. But right now, that’s actually backwards.

09/04/2026

You probably think as a general rule of thumb, brand new homes costs more than existing homes. But right now, that's backwards. This shows just how much.

A newly built home costs about $40k less than an existing one right now. That's because builders are cutting prices and piling on incentives to keep their inventory moving.

And that opens up a window for you to get brand new everything for less than you may expect.

DM me if you want a list of nearby new home communities offering deals like this right now to see if a new build may be in your budget after all.

Why Buyers Shouldn't Overlook a Fall Move

Of course, every market moves a little differently. But here's what doesn't change: Fall consistently buyers. More homes. Lower asking prices. Motivated sellers.

If you’ve been waiting for your search to feel a little more doable, this season may be worth another look.

Let’s have a quick conversation about what's happening in our market and see whether this fall gives you opportunities you may not have had a few months ago.

You've been waiting for something to change before you buy. It just might not be the thing you expected…

Have you seen the headlines about using your 401(k) to cover a down payment?

Tapping it can feel like an easy call, especially if you’ve got a good chunk saved up. But pulling from retirement early can trigger penalties and set back the savings you'll want later on.

But you don’t necessarily have to raid your retirement to buy a home. You’ve got other options, like FHA loans, which let qualified buyers put down as little as 3.5%. And down payment assistance programs can help, too.

So, before you touch your 401(k), talk with a trusted financial advisor. They can help you find the option that fits your goals and your budget.

Sellers Outnumber Buyers Right Now

Buying soon? You’ve got more pull than you might expect. Right now, there are more sellers than buyers on the market. And that means sellers know they’ll have to give a little to get their house sold. Exactly how much negotiating power you have depends on where you’re looking. So, let’s chat about how much power you have here, then turn it into a set of keys.

Sellers Are Cutting Prices To Meet Buyers Where They're At

Right now, sellers are flexible on the price in ways they weren't before. Let’s take advantage of that flexibility.

You may be surprised by what's available – and how willing today's sellers are to work with buyers.

You're scrolling through listings on your phone and everything looks good until you see the price (or the estimated monthly payment). Then you close the app.

🏡 First-Time Home Buyer? Your Offer Is Accepted… Now What?

Getting your offer accepted is exciting 🎉 — but going under contract is really where the next phase begins.

And one of the first important steps after going under contract is the HOME INSPECTION. 🔍

For the last few years, especially during the extremely competitive market, we saw many buyers waiving inspections just to make their offers stronger.

But the market is shifting — and inspections are coming back.

So what are the 3 big things a home inspection helps you understand?

🔍 1. STRUCTURE & EXTERIOR
Foundation, roof, siding, grading, drainage, windows and other visible structural components.

⚡ 2. MAJOR SYSTEMS
Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, water heater and other systems that keep the home functioning every day.

🏠 3. SAFETY & CONDITION
Moisture concerns, visible defects, safety issues and items that may need maintenance, repair or further evaluation.

But here’s something first-time buyers need to understand:

A home inspection isn’t about finding a “perfect” house.

Every home will have something.

The goal is to better understand the home you are buying, its current condition, and what you may need to plan for after you own it.

That’s also why the inspection contingency and the way your offer is written matter. Not every inspection contingency gives a buyer the exact same options.

If you’re a first-time home buyer, don’t wait until you find the house to learn how all of this works.

Preparation starts before the showing. Confidence comes before the offer. 🏡

📩 Comment “FIRST HOME” and let’s set up a Buyer Consultation so you understand the process before you’re competing for the home you love.

Worried About a Housing Crash? The Numbers Tell a Calmer Story.

The rest of the world may feel unpredictable right now, but the housing market doesn't have to. Prices, inventory, and rates have all found solid ground.

If stability is what you've been waiting for, it's already here. Let’s connect if you want to talk through what that means for your move.

A recent survey from Talker Research asked Americans to pick one word to describe how 2026 has felt so far. The winner? Stressful. And honestly, there’s been a lot going on.

🏡 How did my first-time buyer win this Exton home in a multiple-offer situation AND keep an inspection contingency?

The answer actually starts 1.5 months before we wrote the offer.

It starts with PREPARATION. 🔑

My buyer and I first met in June 15, 2026 for an initial buyer consultation. We didn’t immediately start chasing houses.

We built a plan.

We toured just two homes initially—not necessarily to buy them, but to understand what really mattered.

✅ What are the must-haves?
✅ What would be good to have?
✅ Where are we willing to compromise?

Then came our second stage of preparation.

My buyer connected with the lender, got pre-approved, learned the basics of the mortgage process, understood the numbers, and knew the next steps.

Meanwhile, Homes By Jui was doing homework behind the scenes.

I drove by potential homes.
I previewed properties.
I studied locations.

Then last week, 314 Piper Lane in Exton appeared as Coming Soon. 🏡

Before my buyer even walked through the front door, we were already working.

We checked the location and even the direction the front door faces, because that mattered to my buyer.

I spoke with the listing agent.

What’s the history of the home?
Why are the sellers moving?
What is important to them?
What should we understand before writing an offer?

Then the teamwork kicked in.

Buyer + Lender + Realtor + co-op Agent

The buyer and lender talked through the numbers and different scenarios before we saw the home.

What is the comfortable number?
What is the maximum?
What happens to the payment if we increase the offer?
Which terms can we strengthen?
Which protections do we want to keep?

So when my buyer walked into 314 Piper Lane and said, “This is the one,” we didn’t have to start figuring everything out.

We were READY.

And THAT is what I call preparation.

If you’re waiting for the open house to start preparing, you may already be late.

The listing agent still held two open houses. Around 30 people came through. Five offers were submitted.

But my first-time buyer?

🎯 UNDER CONTRACT within 24 hours
🏡 Multiple-offer situation
🔎 With an inspection contingency

Winning a home isn’t always about throwing the highest number at it or waiving every protection.

Sometimes the work that makes the difference happens before you ever see the home.

If you’re planning to buy your first home and want this kind of preparation, strategy, and teamwork:

👇 Comment “HOME BUYER” and let’s schedule your initial buyer consultation.

Let’s get you ready before your perfect home hits the market. 🔑
