Can I use my own real estate agent when buying in Somerset?
Absolutely — and you should. The base price from Bloomfield Homes is the same whether you walk in alone or with an agent. But when you bring Marla, you get someone negotiating incentives on your behalf, reviewing contracts, inspecting builder quality at each phase, and making sure you don't leave money on the table. It's free to you — and it can save you thousands.
Is Somerset still being built, or is it established?
Both. Somerset is a 460-acre master-planned community in active build-out, so you'll find new-construction phases with fresh inventory plus established sections with mature landscaping and resale opportunities. The current market shows balanced activity between resale homes and new construction, which gives buyers real choice — and gives sellers solid comps. We can help you choose whichever fits your timeline and budget.
