I have seen land for sale on the VLS where the old home was torn down and now they are offering the land for sale. If you have a home without a loan and cannot get insurance then bank the money for future roof? The comments above about the newer homes being of lower construction quality are misleading. Why would the developer even consider doing that and risk the reputation of the community? My home did not collapse during Milton and I was in it the whole time.
