How should a real estate website cover new construction?

Cover new construction with a page for each community you work in, a plain guide to how buying new works, and answers to the questions buyers ask builders. Explain what the buyer's agent does, how the builder contract differs from a resale contract, and when to get an inspection. Use only facts you can confirm with the builder, and date anything that changes.

Why new construction content matters

Buyers often walk into a model home before they talk to an agent. A page that explains how buying new works, and why bringing your own agent helps, reaches them earlier. Community pages also answer specific questions AI search gets asked, such as what builders are active in an area.

Pages to build

  • One page per community: location, builders, home styles and nearby amenities
  • How buying new construction works, step by step
  • What a buyer's agent does on a new build
  • Builder contract basics and why to read them closely
  • Inspections on new homes: pre-drywall and final
  • A live listings grid for the area, if you have IDX

Questions to answer for buyers

  • Does the builder require me to register my agent at the first visit?
  • What is included in the base price and what costs extra?
  • What does the builder warranty cover, and for how long?
  • Can I use my own lender, and what incentives depend on the builder's lender?
  • What happens if construction runs late?

Keep it accurate

Builder pricing, incentives and floor plans change often. Do not post them unless you can keep them current, and name the builder as the source. On Savvy Studio, every edit goes to a draft you preview before publishing, so updating a community page takes a few minutes with the AI editor or the manual block editor.

More questions, answered

Should I copy builder floor plans and photos?

Only with the builder's permission. Many agents describe the community and link to the builder's site. MLS listings of new homes should appear through your IDX display, not copied by hand.

Do I need separate pages for each builder?

A page per community usually works better, with each builder in that community described on it. Add builder pages if buyers search for builders by name in your area.

How do I keep incentives current?

Avoid publishing specific incentives unless you check them often. Saying incentives vary and inviting buyers to ask is safer and stays accurate longer.
