Default New Home Gouging?

A friend of mine closed on his home just six months ago in TV. He "swears" that prices on an exact Designer home like his has gone up in price 30% in the last six months. He says, "The Developer is gouging people".

$250,000 Designer home with a 30% increase would now cost $325,000. My friend is convinced this is true and I have no reason not to believe him as He is not one to make "things" up. I have no valid data to back him up.

Assuming this is correct, is the Developer gouging people on new homes?
