How to AVOID overpaying for New Construction in Lehigh Valley

Описание: New Construction Home Buying Process in the Lehigh Valley | What Smart Buyers Need to Know

Thinking about buying a new construction home in the Lehigh Valley?
Before you visit a model home, choose a lot, or sign a builder contract, there are critical strategy, pricing, and leverage considerations every buyer should understand.

In this video, I break down the new construction home buying process in the Lehigh Valley for executives, physicians, high-performing professionals, and relocating families who value clarity, efficiency, and informed decision-making.

New construction is often marketed as the easier option — fewer repairs, modern layouts, and a streamlined process. In reality, new construction introduces different risks, pricing structures, and contract terms that can significantly impact your time, money, and long-term value if they’re not addressed early.

In this video, you’ll learn:

How the new construction buying process works from start to finish

What is actually negotiable with builders (and what usually isn’t)

Realistic price ranges for new construction homes in the Lehigh Valley

The difference between base price and finished price

Why builder contracts are different from resale contracts

Where buyers commonly lose leverage without realizing it

How timelines really work — and how to plan around delays

Why representation still matters, even when buying directly from a builder

In the Lehigh Valley market, semi-custom new construction often starts around $499,000 for a basic 2,200 square foot home on a quarter-acre lot, before upgrades. As lot size, square footage, and customization increase, pricing scales quickly. Luxury new construction on one to two acre lots can exceed $1 million and beyond.

This video is designed to help you approach new construction with confidence instead of guesswork, especially if you have limited time, are relocating, or want a clear process that surfaces risk instead of hiding it.
