Noticed today the number of new spec homes dropped to 262, it usually hangs at 280-290.

Did all the rains slow up the builders, or are sales off, also noticed less lots being marked sold over the past few weeks.

Anyone know what's up?

Real estate IS cyclical, even in The Villages.

I was wondering if sales were a little slow I saw a The Villages ad on Fox News last week and that's the first time in a while I've seen a TV ad on Fox News

I noticed that too! Of course we are closing on a spec 1 Oct. Didn't want to build out in the deconstruction zone...fell in love with spec.

Congratulations to you! How exciting. Welcome to TV

If spec homes are down I interpret that to mean sales are up.....gn

Also heard there is a spec Cottage being built with a pool as an experiment.

Probably excludes MLS resales.

Do you buy the lot then buy the house??

[jimbo2012]

Not exactly U put a deposit on a lot to build a home, $2500-7500 depending on how long upto a year to build.

But you select the exact home later before the build starts.
