The home is less than 12 months old. Per the original owners purchase agreement they cannot make a profit in the first 12 months if they sell. This situation was put in place to stop speculation. They are pricing at original price + improvements.

There are conditions where this pricing abnormality works to your advantage, price increase by the developer, sharp increase in inflation or a shortage of some characteristic of the home, making new models dramatically more expensive.
