I know what my eyes saw in Moultrie Creek. I am capable of reading over 200 available Moultrie listings on VLS. Lots of empty homes sitting just like Denham and Dabney. No sense in arguing. In a few months, buyers will have their say one way or the other.
Does it really matter where 70-100 people are buying? It just means houses are selling, those less desirable homes on lots, or models that some just don’t like, or kissing of death lanai, have always sat longer in any village.

Since your spouse sold homes would those stats for the last 20 years be available and the percentage of villages that were on the market at the same time? How many homes sold at a discount?

I know there were a fair amount with discounts when we bought in 2010, 2012, 2014. In 2020, 2021 there were few homes that had discounts. Then again there wasn’t 3-5 villages being released within short periods of time.

Since you look for homes to flip, you must have kept stats on market of new and preowned. But I don’t ever remember this many releases in multiple villages as we have in today’s market.

Then again the developers don’t seem to worry about homes, on the market, just seems business as usual. Keeping workers employed, instead of shutting down new building until all homes sell, in existing villages.

Pretty sure the construction guys are happy continuing to support their families
