Why? Individuals have bought there, torn down manufactured homes, and put up stick-built homes. It was stated last year on the forum that you could put up any kind of house you wanted, and you weren't restricted to using TV's builders. As in the oversized house that doesn't fit the neighborhood.

Apparently the criteria to purchase was the price, not condition. By buying these homes that were listed for less than $100k and rebuilding on the lots it will certainly bring good things to the lovely area.

But on the plus side, it will keep all of those hardworking and efficient crews working for some time. They do such a terrific job.

It just goes to show that many rumors around here have basis in fact.

What does that have to do with a building permit? A building permit is required to do most work on a house including a total rebuild.

Most of the site built homes here fit the neighborhoods fine. The lots are mostly 60' X 90' so the size of the house is a bit restricted. You might be surprised as you drive around here to find that in some cases it's difficult to the the difference between a site built home and a newer manufactured home.

I too, had heard that "rumor" from someone who had a basis to know. I could barley wait to say. Nah..nah ...told you so. Yes, this is said in a joking fashion. Doubters don't get mad. :a040:

Well, I knew it was going to happen before the developer had even decided to do it! And, my mom can drive better than yours :1rotfl:

My mom's combat boots are prettier than your moms.:boxing2:

All kidding aside. I think it is very good news. I love watching what happens here all of the time.

huge huge fantsy!
 

absolute nothing could be farther from the truth! the homes here are built all for show, with zero craftsmanship! i go to open houses the huge glaring shoddy workmanship is glaring if you know what ur looking for. look in showers the separation gap in the panels breeds mold an bacteria, walk around some homes an look at the slab, some are crumbling. (but they sure are pretty inside jammed full of outrageously overpriced poorly made furniture!)
