Why you should always have a buyers agent represent your interests in buying new property

I recently received an email about a special on the new development:

*********************
For over four years, our team has created second home resorts on the Texas Coast and in the Hill Country for enthusiasts like you. There are over 500 purchasers and owners that were inspired by a great vision that is now reality at Pointe West. At some point, you have expressed interest in ownership here. As we near the end of summer, the ownership opportunities are the best we have offered since breaking ground on the coast... true waterfront luxury Villas in an amenity-rich coastal resort community from the $250s. What are you waiting for?

At the bottom of the email was the following in tiny print that was also very light that was not readable.

We expanded that below so you can read it:

Pointe West owner negotiates sale of properties
GALVESTON — Dallas-based Centex Corp. confirmed Monday it’s in negotiations with a buyer for certain properties within its resort division, which includes the nearly 1,000-acre Pointe West development on the island’s westernmost tip.

What’s to become of Pointe West Development?

Real estate sources said Dallas-based Centex Destination Corp.’s sale of its Pointe West development on 1,000 acres of the island’s westernmost tip is a done deal.

But officials with Centex Corp., the parent company of the resort property division, said there’s nothing new to report.

Centex last week confirmed it was in negotiations to sell some properties in its resort division, including Pointe West, a development that was supposed to eventually include a little more than 2,300 houses and condos. Some condos and homes are built at the resort, including a clubhouse.

Centex declined to name the suitor, but sources say Macfarlan Capital Partners, a Dallas-based real estate investment management firm, is the buyer.

It’s unclear whether new owners will retain the project’s original scope or sell off real estate holdings.

Centex has not answered queries about how many units already are built at the development. City officials could say only that Centex has permits to build 1,056 residential units and 20,000 square feet of commercial, office and retail space on 230 acres south of FM 3005.

It also has permits to build 1,258 units and 208,000 square feet of commercial, office and retail space on 777 acres north of FM 3005.
