Interest rates are a larger concern in the overal calculation of what a TV house costs.
Wow, you actually got a call from your Sales Rep? We've been working with one for 2.5 years and she's NEVER called us. On our last trip to TV in April she did feed us the idea that 'prices will be increasing 'soon' because of incresed materials costs so we better buy now. Not that it appears to have happened.

If the prices for new construction are too much out of line with equivalent resales when we come to buy next summer, we'll take a resale.
