Thank you for providing this information as it explains a great deal and takes away the assumption that the developer dropped a million dollar price tag on a house where most of us don't see the value.
Having said that, I feel bad for the person who lost both their job and their dream house. In today's world, anyone can lose their job and it often is through no fault of their own. We have seen similar situations (albeit at a lower price point) in our own neighborhood here in The Villages. For those of us who are retired or just about to retire, we should have all of our finances well in order. For those younger or thinking of a home as an investment, they typically will have many more things to consider. Again, we hope the people who lost that lovely home they built find a different way to what they are looking for in life.
