I have not seen a designer size home on a golf course front be less than a CYV on a golf course front. In fact on the current new homes site they have several Grantham Villas (1700 sq. ft) on Kenya for around 308K. The designer homes (1900+ sq. ft) on Kenya are around 380K and up.

I think I must be misinterpreting your statement.

Russ, don't ask me, I think the sales office was just trying to get rid of me. After a year or more of looking, they made me this offer I couldn't refuse. My Dad thinks my house is gonna fall in the pond or a sinkhole cause the deal was too good. No, I've got a Lantana, I think a stretch, for under $300 with a view of a pond and golf course and nothing blocking the view. (Not including the bond, of course) All the Grantham's I saw new were more expensive and in that model, when you walk in, you can't see the view only a wall, so why bother having the view. So I opted for this house and have never been unhappy not even for 1 day.
I did stipulate that its important to do a lot of research, because I could judge the value of the property over the many many houses I looked at. I hope I answered your question.... Kath
