The lot has value for someone looking to build their dream home on and live in it forever, someone who isn't looking at it as an investment but rather as a place to live, but it would be hard to pull off as a spec home in my opinion for a number of reasons.New home construction has come back stronger than ever here but mostly within two categories: entry level (300-400k range for the area you're talking about, higher in Denver) and million dollar plus custom builds.

Keep the customer in mind at all times.

Custom made corded blinds for each window would be expensive.Thanks!
