I love to negotiate on whatever I can but, having bought three new build homes throughout my life, actually like the "level playing field" of new home construction's structured pricing/sales.

I purchased a new build in TV summer 2023 and was told the builder used to negotiate years ago, but no longer does for a wide array of reasons. This market might just test that policy.
Never negotiated that I’m aware of! Don’t need to! As communities close out, they will change some prices to close out the community, so they can concentrate on new Villages
