Realtors launch Nevada Builder Trade In Program

constructi­on timeline,” Robin Smith said. “This program creates a path for homeowners to sell their current home and buy a brand-new one at the same time while assisting homeowners step-by-step through the process.”

The Nevada Builder Trade In Program has grown over the course of four years and is offered at more than 50 Las Vegas Valley neighborho­ods constructe­d by Beazer Homes, CalAtlanti­c Homes, Century Communitie­s, Pulte Homes and Woodside Homes, as well as at Sun City Mesquite by Del Webb.

“Our real estate market’s sales prices have changed significan­tly over the past few years. Many are no longer underwater in their current mortgages, and they are now able to sell their home with equity and re-invest that equity into a brand-new home,” Robin Smith said.

If a homeowner is interested in the program and buying a home at a builder-partner neighborho­od, the Smith Team will help the homeowner at no cost by:

• Providing a comparativ­e market-analyst, which details their current home’s projected sales price.

• Advising on what to do in terms of repairs and updates to increase their home’s sales price.

• Reviewing the equity available if the home sells at different price points.

• Assessing their ability to purchase the new home if their current home sells at the projected market value.

“Taking the time to review all of these financial factors is important when making an informed decision as to whether to buy a new home. My brother, Robert, is a CPA with 19 years of experience as well as a Realtor. He offers a financiall­y focused perspectiv­e in helping homeowners determine the amount of equity they will have from their home sale and if the home they want to purchase makes financial sense after they pay off their existing mortgage,” Robin Smith said.
