When looking at models, you are told that the price quoted is for a standard lot. If you want a larger lot or waterfront or golf course frontage the price will be higher. Your brother was probably told that, even though the house he was looking at had a larger than standard lot, he was not being charged extra for it. This is exactly how new homes are sold almost everywhere. Most times the model prices are for standard lots, which are usually available. If you want a 'better' lot you pay extra.
