Not as favorable for the builder, but better for the future homeowner. Any issues arising from heavy rain and a high water table will have to be addressed during construction out of necessity.

When we were building in 2020/21, we drove to our house daily. Christmas eve, there was a large wind storm and a house under construction had half of its roof trusses come down. I always wondered if that homeowner ever found out about that - or the inspector for the city.

Little while ago found two houses floating down our street.

No different than building dead of winter up north. During two of our builds not unusual to have 2’ of snow inside and on the roof until windows, doors are in. Then gas furnace is hung from basement rafters, to start drying things out.

Glue doesn't shrink.

I suspect (I've never watch TV construction) that most of the "wood" that goes into their construction, is some sort of manufactured product. Most of that stuff is much more stable than old fashioned, real "wood".

Yup...the wood was not covered the year before when it was stored at the lumberyard either.

Now...if the builder is crazy enough to sheetrock, wire, carpet/tile, install appliances, and paint before they put on the roof or installed windows---then yeah...that will be an issue.

It will be fine.... During the 2-5 months it took to build every home here in the Villages I promised it rained more than once...
