From New Home to New Horizons...

With over 10 years of experience in real estate and an insider background working directly for a builder, Cat Pannell brings a level of expertise most agents simply cannot match. She is New Construction Certified, a certified negotiator, and deeply fluent in how builders think, price, and deal—because she has been on that side of the table. That insider knowledge is your advantage. When you work with Cat, you get a seasoned expert who negotiates hard on your behalf from day one. She knows exactly where builders have room to move and how to push for the terms that put more money back in your pocket. Cat actively negotiates to secure the best possible purchase price, interest rate buy-downs paid by the builder, closing costs covered, free upgrades and design credits, reduced out-of-pocket expenses, and contract terms that protect and benefit you. You get experienced, strategic representation—and it costs you nothing. The builder pays Cat's commission entirely, so her expertise works in your favor at zero expense to you. And when you close on your new home, you will receive a complimentary luxury cruise for two to the Bahamas or Caribbean—a thank-you for trusting Cat with one of the biggest decisions of your life. A brand-new home. A skilled negotiator with a decade of expertise fighting for your best deal. And a vacation waiting on the other side of closing. This is what the new construction experience should feel like.
