I think a better marketing strategy would have been to advertised as "refurbished lifestyle visit homes", assuming the home had been touched up, in the wear and tear areas. To advertise as "new" is just wrong.
As usual, it is buyer beware. A roof 8 years old is not new, unless they had a 50 year roof installed, Then it would definitely last the lifetime of the original buyer.
People think of new as never having been lived in by anyone. Those who want new, like the thought, they were the only one in "that home".
Other people who don't mind someone having lived there before them, might like a reduced priced but know, it's not "new".
