I would assume not and tge RE agent was basically fluffing him. Am I wrong with that assumption?
Even with a standard lot, he may well have had a small lot premium. This would have been disclosed to him and possibly the reason he felt he had to pay for the land as an extra. If one purchases a spec house, the lot premium is already in the advertised price.
