Look at unit 216 and 217 under Neighborhood maps - the main issue is as always LOCATION. The houses that have Lanai's onto Hillsborough are the properties that have not sold, because nobody wants to look out onto traffic. Since all of these are "spec" homes, that has to be having an affect. I think the issue with the prices going up is important also, but WHO CARES, they are still selling a lot of houses every month, and will have them all sold in the next few years.

Homes looking out onto a street are more desirable than interior lots and are considered premium lots and they cost more. Many people enjoy the privacy of looking out onto a street rather than another home. We originally thought the same about homes on streets but now know many people who love their privacy after nine at night, not much traffic at all.

I was surprised when someone said they didn't want an "end" lot. I think having an "end" lot is very nice. What one person thinks is often perceived differently by others.
