Everyone has a budget. Let's dispel some myths about your clients' "bottom line." 💸🏡 Myth: "If my budget is too high, my builder/designer will try and upsell me" 📈 The hard truth is that the client decides how much they spend. As a builder, it is crucial to use the budget as a guideline to think creatively and provide the best end product that fits your home buyers' criteria. Myth: "I can't get the best of the best on a budget" 💎 It's about priorities and comfortability. Knowing what your home buyer cares about gives you valuable insight into how to balance the budget. Often, you can achieve the same look by saving on nonessentials and reallocating those funds to higher-priority elements in the build. Myth: "I trust your vision to build me the best house" 🔍 Even though this is something that everyone likes to hear, it can lead to many pitfalls later on in the production process. Active collaboration will educate your home buyer on what options are available and at what price point. Imagine planning out the finishes and features only to find out your client has cold feet once they see the details. There's plenty more to consider when budgeting.
