Why should I have REALTOR representation when purchasing a home from a builder?

QUESTION #1: When purchasing a new home from builders like Lennar, M/I Homes, Khov, Ryland, etc....why should I have a buyer's agent represent us?

ANSWER #1: The new home sale representative on site at the builders model works for the builder.  He/She is an employee of the builder and gets paid to sell homes. 

The Builder has a representative, shouldn't you? YES - DEFINITELY 

It gets even better.  BUYER'S AGENT REPRESENTATION IS FREE.  We get paid by the builder to represent you, the buyer.
