Bottom line, only 200 people will get the discount. Had your friends waited, they might or might not have been among the lucky. If they were, then two other home buyers among the lucky 200 would not have been.
Do you see what I mean?

Hi Pturner, nice to hear from you. They did the same thing to us. We picked out our lot in late July. They told us that if we got an appointment with the design center and signed before the end of September that we would get a 4% discount. They also told us that there would be no more discounts. We really planned on selling our home in NJ first. We made the decision to build and hope to sell. We are still happy with making the move and getting the 4% discount. Then Oct 1st they offered 3.5% then Nov 1st 4%. I fell it is deceiving and poor business practice. They don't need to do that, the lifestyle sells itself. I don't have a problem with them offering discounts to build but don't lie to people and say there won't be any more. That's 4 of us that I know for a fact were told the same thing. We are busy packing 31 days until we leave for TV
