Buyer's agents at Landmark by Hillwood in Denton TX (all nine Phase 1 builders) paid by builders — zero cost. Nine-builder comparison across price tier, included features, warranty terms, and customer service reputation. Phase 1 lot positioning strategy — understanding which lots offer best value and long-term appreciation potential. Construction timeline coordination managing the 9-12 month build process and financing. Builder contract review and negotiation to protect buyer interests. Critical reminder: bring your own buyer's agent on your FIRST visit to any Landmark model home, or you may lose the right to representation entirely — builder's on-site sales agent legally represents the builder, not you.
