TV gives you more options now with dealing with T&D and their prices are better than they were a year ago.
Where and what model are you building?

If you get a pool/birdcage done while the house is being built then it will cost you more than if you do it later. Reason for that is The Villages adds on their cut to whatever T&D charges them for the work. I have heard from some they have saved as much as $10k by doing the work after closing on the house.
