For what it's worth, a few days ago we received this from our sales rep:
Quote:
Hope all is well. Over the past couple years you have noticed discounts applied (currently 3%) to newly released homes and homes built to customer order. It was announced today that effective January 1, 2010 NO discounts will be applied to newly released spec/inventory homes or homes built to order. Pricing will be reflective to market, home style, location as well as fluctuating material/supply costs, but no discounts will be applied additionally.

We won't be buying until about 2012, so we aren't going to ask him for any further explanation. We're not sure if prices will go up or if listed prices will be lowered but never obviously "discounted."
Oops... I see this is already covered in another thread.
