I think its dumb to be hundreds of dollars under water for a drawn out, sustained periods.

We always build less square feet so we can capture the highest price per square foot. you can't control your market economics so building and designing and constructing around them is good. 200 sq ft less might be a huge pool or another amenity.

So buying the pool cabin was not a bad thing at all.

This ensures the property is secured, heat or A/C is adjusted, all water is off, and they do an initial inspection to see what they are dealing with.
