After we put down our money, 3 more lots that would have been ideal came up, we tried for them also, knowing we would loose our deposit. Best we got was #2, and #5 and first people took the lot. So we are building on the 9th lot we bid on. It was very frustrating, and glad we are building in Richmond, but what a roller coaster.

Any advice that I can give you is don’t get your hopes up, if you get a house, celebrate, because there were 20 plus others that lost, and if you don’t get #1, there will be another house to put your name one, and you might get lucky. If not there will be a new village to buy a house, down the line

Great response!
