My opinion is that when you look at new houses for sale today it is difficult to compare apples to apples with previous year sale prices for so many options change. I think home prices have come down but the greatest reduction was in premium lot prices....not in the actual sturcture cost. To compenaste for the reduction in cost (or profit for the builder) its my feeling that the builder is putting less options into the new homes. SO you are getting a cheaper house today but this house even if it sits on a golf course, probably also has less options in the house than one built 2-3 yers ago.

I agree with what previous posters said in that once the housing market starts moving again up north, The Villlages will again "explode" in construction and value. He is not
doing bad selling 7.5 houses 7 days a week. I think any developer would cherish those statistics.

BUY now while you can at reasonable prices.
