Good analogy Margaret.

I am retired from a top 10 single family and move up production home builder through my contacts I know that it cost Florida production builders from $150 - $200 per square foot. This means the Mores Family can continue to lower prices to keep their "take down" schedule intact this will crash the resale market not just in the Villages but Florida and nation wide. THEY ARE IN COMPETION WITH YOU!!! P.S. Material issues will not slow down an operation like the Morse's for long because they have large long term contracts with suppliers and subs plus the weaking economy is making materials and labor more abundant in general. The Morse's also enjoy favorable leverage in terms of their long term land positions this means they can sell their product at a much lower price and still be profitable.

Looks like they are sitting on a ton of existing inventory and unsold new homes too. Just to be fair with everyone.

wonder how many of those were sold to investors?

Don’t think investors buy expensive lots on golf courses. I wonder how many of them were sold to existing villages owners moving down to the new area. My guess is 20% are buying their second or third home in the villages. People want and pay for views. My 2 cents.

The lots are $1000. That’s not a big feat.

That’s all I’d buy as an investor. Better return maybe.

I believe I saw the village listed in both the "Key Details" (subdivision) and "Location" (community) sections on his website for each house. Keep in mind the data is probably entered and owned by the MLS so his site is probably pulling in this data so its up to the listing agent to get it right.

For the cost of the house, it’s a minor upgrade.

Quartz requires less maintenance
