Some are even building HUD homes with 2x6 exterior walls, radiant barrier roof decking, a full house moisture barrier, low-e vinyl windows, extra roof/wall/floor insulation and high efficiency HVAC systems.

Great So I have contacted my closing specialist at ten ex  and I have not herd a single thing from them.

@Ryan D. you are observing the herd mentality.

Don't follow the herd. 

Once the Condos are being sold for more than the Single Families it seems the ether is wearing off and a correction occurs.HoweverRight now they say that nationally we have the lowest inventory since it's been tracked (1959) and with the large growth in population we'll continue to see Sales Price exceed Listings Prices and DOM to remain low.So it might be time to "cull the herd" of any dogs you have, only get into short term projects and always check for opportunities in more resistant areas e.g.

It is basically just commentary on the herd mentality.

Don't follow the herd. 

Prices seem to be driven in large part by school districts and I’m a parent so that unfortunately puts me with the herd at least for the property that will be my primary residence. 

I have also herd that.

Looks like a radiant heat set up, in floor heating most likely.
