Actually, there are so many choices and so very many options, it is MIND BOGGLING to rush into building what supposedly might very well be your last residence. TV is huge. The choices are tremendously huge. Why rush?

We didn't want to be locked in until we SOLD our property. Then if you didn't...in say a years time........Having the lot and KNOWING we had to sell would have been far more worrisome to us. We sold, had the same choices for lots that we would have had really if we had reserved one, and had no problems. We didn't want to own TWO properties. You know you have to PAY on the lot after you put the hold on it.
While all these things were unfolding, we were making plans and choices, and had narrowed down the choice for our final home to two models and then had the choice to build in either Pennecamp or Laurel Valley or if we had waited two weeks in McClinney. So three areas were available with a variety of lots and choices when we sold. We had already decided what we wanted in a lot and in a house. We pulled the trigger, easily found a rental...and here we are.
The prime and
expensive view lots are the only ones that if they are on your plans need to be bought...they go fast.
