Did you read every word of every document when you bought your house? Maybe you did, but that would make you a very rare bird. The contract signing would take hours and hours if everyone did and the closing might have to be held over the period of several days.

But I assume that a few people do.

I had read about this on this forum many times and heard it from people who are our friends who lived here. We didn't have a loan, but knew that if we changed the contract on the new house we had commissioned to build , that each change would cost us $250. The process runs like a machine.


No. It isn't like your sisters real estate experience or any of ours either and many of us have bought/built many times. This is the fastest growing area in the United States and one if not the most sought after retirement community in the world.


NO one sells this many homes in a month. ANYWHERE. Just another unbelievable until you witness experience for people.
