Central Florida's new construction market is one of the most active in the country — with major builder activity in Horizon West, Lake Nona, Avalon Park, and infill communities throughout the metro offering warranties, modern finishes, and often builder incentives.
Pre-construction in Orlando spans master-planned communities (Lake Nona, Horizon West) and infill builder developments. Florida statutes govern aspects of pre-construction sales including escrow handling and buyer rescission. BKRS represents buyers and recommends consulting a Florida real estate attorney for legal review.
Central Florida's new construction market spans a wide range — from townhomes in Horizon West starting in the mid-$300s to custom lakefront estates in Windermere and Dr. Phillips exceeding $5M. Major national and regional builders operate throughout the metro, and BKRS represents buyers in new construction transactions — providing representation at no additional cost to the buyer in most cases, as builder commissions are built into the purchase price whether or not a buyer has representation. Having independent representation on a new construction purchase protects buyer interests that builder sales agents cannot serve.
Many buyers mistakenly believe that going directly to a builder — without a buyer's agent — will save money. In most cases, the builder's commission structure is built into the home price regardless of whether the buyer has representation. The builder's sales agent represents the builder's interests. An independent buyer's agent from BKRS represents your interests — reviewing contracts, negotiating terms, coordinating inspections, and advocating at every stage of the process at no additional cost to the buyer in most transactions.
Builder incentives in Central Florida vary significantly by builder, community, inventory status, and market conditions. Rate buydowns, closing cost assistance, and design upgrade packages are commonly available on standing inventory. The incentive landscape changes frequently — BKRS tracks current builder programs and can advise buyers on where the strongest incentive packages are currently available. Verify all incentive terms directly with builders before making decisions.
BKRS represents buyers in new construction throughout Central Florida — Horizon West, Lake Nona, Avalon Park, Dr. Phillips, and beyond. Contact us at Call Agent before your first builder visit to secure your independent representation.
