If you want to negotiate prior to contract, most builders are going to do everything in their power to avoid dropping the price...this could mean paying closing costs, pre-paying HOA dues, buying down your rate, giving options/upgrades at no cost, etc...basically anything that is going to allow them to keep the recorded price elevated.Even in down markets we are still trying to show price INCREASES phase over phase, even if that means giving away more in concessions on a case-by-case basis to get deals done.
