This forum is going in way different direction from the original question. I am looking for what feature or details that builder offers in their material and construction methods. I have not seen thru the years that the villages provide any specific details. Like for example we put re-rod every 24" from the fountain up thru the block for added strength. or steel lintel for window and door frames on block construction. stick built houses we use 20 gauge versus 28 gauge steel studding pressure treated for the sill plate. or what steps we take to meet make sure your home are energy efficient. Home builder here at my main home up north and some in Fl. . do describe the features they build into their homes.
