No, I'm not living there yet, but I did spend a couple of lsv's looking at quite a few homes. Also, I was a construction superintendant for several developers in collier county (Naples) I am familiar with the local codes, and truss design common practices. That being said, it appears that, except for the premier homes, "attic trusses" are an extra that must be specified pre-construction. An alteration can probably be engineered post-construction, but would be pricey.
