We had to do so many things after market on a new house, that with the other 5 houses we built it was done at construca crime to have to rip out brand new carpet, even though it is pretty bad, to get the wood floor we wanted and then where does all that carpet go. Probably Landfill. tion time. It's I was shocked after living here months to realize when I bought my new dinner ware how shallow the cabinets are. Can't fit the dinner plates in there. Would be nice if they put pull out shelves in the pantry cabinet. They are so deep you have a long reach in and anything on the bottom you have to practically lay on the floor. Granted they are doing a little more on choices then they did a few years ago. Garages really need to be bigger. Not everyone has one small car and a golf cart. On our bridgeport they could have taken some of the kitchen area by my desk and made the garage bigger. We even added footage to the house while building but only what they would allow. I'll probably think of more. lol

Amen to this, especially the part about having to go in and ugrade a brand new home. We wanted/needed a CYV because of privacy and our 2 dogs and were able to purchase one in Edgewater Bungalows that was stretched, had a two-car garage on a large lot. The only thing we wished was that we could have made upgrades as the villa was being built. Now we want/need to go in and start ripping out here, adding there, upgrading this and that. I want to learn to live within the space we have-I'm tired of too much clutter-but I dread walking into a builder grade home and having my eyes roll up the dollar signs at the upgrades. My true wish is that I would walk into this home and not care about the cheap cabinets, appliances, materials, lack of finishes, etc. But I don't think that is going to happen. I have decided that I will do only targeted upgrades. We are not about to rebuild the house from scratch! So.....my wish? Let us make upgrades to the CYV's as they are being built. Yeah, I know, wishful thinking!!!
