We are taking the carpets, because I would not pay the silly $$ they ask for tile or wood.

I will offer them for sale before moving in (I've seen that done here) if that don't workout use them for a few years and toss them.

Other options IMO were very fairly priced ex; 2' garage stretch $1200, that sounded very fair.

What ever U choose it will appreciate in value when the buildout ends
Thanks for your response. However, if you'll review my original post you'll note I mentioned I was trying to compare apples to apples as I already am a resident of TV who has a house for sale. I'm just trying to figure out if it's possible to build a new home that has our builder's upgrades and a comparable lot premium for a similar price to what we're asking. This is not taking into account the after purchase upgrades we did. Guess it's pretty difficult to try to compare.
