You can say that again! We put our deposit on our lot in April. Went over the cost of the designer we wanted and major options. We were told the price. In July, decided to book a design meeting although it was premature for us. I had a feeling that the 4% discount would be taken away and my intuition was right. In any event, I think the price of the house has increased now three times. We have our meeting Thanksgiving week. Seems our 3.5% discount will be gone by then but whatcha gonna do? I'm just glad that we'll be in TV soon!
