Prebuilt is the daddymac scenario
Custom built is the JMintzer scenario, which is the purchase of the land downpayment, and a future close date when the house is reasonably expected to be completed.

I would add that the OP download the Villages GPS app to his/her smart phone, so that they have directions home
