Agent incentives — Guide Homes exclusive
Agent Incentives
Builders set aside a commission for the buyer's agent. Because Guide Homes does the heavy lifting — the search, the data, the coordination — your agent can work for less of it, and that difference goes toward your home instead. We stack it with what the builder and your lender are offering.
How we do it
We work all three — not just one.
More on the table than going in alone
Stacked together, then put wherever it helps you most.
Where does the money normally go?
Most buyers never see any of it. Working with us, some of it comes back.
Step 1
Builder
Sets aside a 2–3% commission on every sale
Step 2
Guide Homes
Does the legwork the commission pays for, so a share can come back
Step 3
You
That share works for you — as a rate buy-down, down payment, credit, or price cut
Where your incentive can go
Once we've stacked it, you decide where it lands — and it doesn't have to be just one.
Lower rate
Buy your rate down
Put it toward a rate buy-down and your payment drops for as long as you hold the loan. Held to term, this is usually where the money goes furthest.
Best for: buyers planning to stay 5+ years
More cash
Grow your down payment
Put it toward your down payment instead. You borrow less from day one, which lowers the payment and leaves you with more equity in the home.
Best for: buyers who want to borrow as little as possible
Cash at closing
Cover your closing costs
Put it toward closing costs and it cuts the cash you have to bring on closing day. It appears on your closing disclosure in full.
Best for: first-time buyers and tight cash-to-close
Lower price
Take it off the price
Put it against the purchase price itself. That shrinks the loan and the payment, and puts you ahead on equity the day you close.
Best for: cash buyers and anyone planning a quick refi

Tour homes & shortlist

We stack what's available, then you choose where it lands — rate buy-down, down payment, closing costs, or off the price.
Close & receive your incentive
Your incentive is applied at closing and fully disclosed on the closing disclosure. No surprises.
And you're not doing it alone
An AI concierge, plus real people
New construction moves fast — phases release, homes sell, incentives change week to week. We keep track of all of it so you don't have to.
Ask anything, any hour
Our concierge knows every new-construction home we track across Utah — plans, pricing, payment estimates — and tells you where each answer came from.
It remembers your search
Saved homes, must-haves, and where you left off carry over between visits, so you're never starting from scratch.
Real people when it counts
Touring, writing an offer, sorting the incentive with the lender — a licensed agent picks it up from there and stays with you to closing.
