It frustrates me when people say, "there are no good deals" or, "can you send me a good deal" but never define it. - What price point can you afford?

Last 2 years single family has continued to increase due to limited supply even as rates are where they are (which is not actually high).

I will get a counter offer usually and I will say no thanks , but hang on to my offer in case you change your mind .

I want to be able to do a cash deal to get a lower price and avoid all the cost that go along with a lot loan, fees, points, etc.

It helps absorb the cost of your payment and gives you a better understanding of how REI actually works.

With a very high costs are so many are stretched to the limit.

Also, I found 2 ideologies regarding such development projects: Use one GC for the entire development or use that GC only for crucial trades such as foundation, framing, roofing , external siding, etc. and use sub contractors for finish and interior work to reduce cost.

We have no idea what the payout was.

God's honest truth, so my answer would be NO. 

No invoice, no mention of what this is for.
