New Construction Real Estate Agent in Geneva, IL: What One Does, How a New Build Here Goes, and Who to Call

A new construction real estate agent in Geneva, IL works for you instead of the builder, and Kelly Lach does that work for Geneva buyers. Here is what the job covers, how a new build goes in Geneva, and how to reach her.

Talk to Kelly

What does a new construction real estate agent in Geneva do?

She represents the buyer from the first visit to a builder’s sales office through the final walkthrough. That means getting registered with the builder before anything is signed, reading the contract with your attorney, and standing with you at the inspections. A new build around Geneva means one of three things: a lot inside the city, a builder community, or a new home just outside city limits. Kelly looks at all three with you.

The full order of a purchase, from builder registration to the final walkthrough, is in the new construction home buying process, step by step, and the Batavia version of this page is how a new build runs in Batavia.

How does a new build in Geneva go?

  1. Register Kelly on your first visit. Say you have an agent before you tour a model, so she is on file with the builder from day one.
  2. Check who serves the address. The City of Geneva owns its electric utility, and no other supplier can sell power to a home inside the city. Mill Creek, just outside the city, is served by ComEd. Both facts come from the City’s own utility FAQ.
  3. Plan around the trees. Where building is proposed near mature trees the City requires a Tree Preservation Plan Review, and a lot of 1.5 acres or more needs a Tree Removal Permit Review before large trees come down.
  4. Inspect twice. Kelly helps you book an independent inspector at framing and again before closing.

Why use a Geneva agent for a new build?

  • The builder’s paper gets a second reader before you sign it.
  • You learn the utility, the permits and the tree rules before you pick a lot, not after.
  • You can compare a new build with Geneva’s older homes, and with new construction across the Tri-Cities, in one conversation.
