I usually just read and keep quiet but somehow I can't keep quiet this morning. When you say, "secured financing, paid my deposit and paid the appraisal fee", what amount of deposit did you pay? When I bought a few years ago, 20% deposit was due before construction starts or if buying a spec home, 20% was due within 10 days as a down payment. Has this changed? Look at your contract. How much out of pocket have you spent as of now?
