Then we thought we would be able to bill in our profit but because we are the developer and the builder they make us take it at the end - tons of priceless learning lessons!

One of my main concerns is how the builder's warranty would be handled by having two builders in the process. 

They cost me $1,800 each, which is a steal compared to the 1 trip containers a lot of builders use.I think containers get really expensive when people try to make them look like a regular house, or a high end modern home.

As a 40 year resident and 28 year builder and developer in the Treasure Valley I am always looking to connect with others. 

Judgement & Appeal Easton's original case was tried in front of a jury that awarded her $197,000 in damages, to be paid from the parties as follows: five percent from the seller's brokerage, 65% from the sellers, and the remainder to be paid by the builders.

In general if you're buying new construction from a builder, it's tough to make the numbers work.

With Dodd Frank there is several gray areas and as a builder can I legally owner finance a new construction home out?

If you think "well, prices will come down" go ask a home builder, find out how much those prices will go down because fact is in most areas we home builders are operating on tiny profit margins, there just isn't anywhere to drop prices significantly.  

I unwound one to the chagrin of a seller in the past.. and the attorney had to call back all the checks he wrote the checks to the real estate brokers and the seller.. they pushed hard but I had a litigation attorney write them a letter and they backed off did not record the deed and unwound the deal.. the builder had not hooked up the house to water power or gas and wanted me to close on a promise.  

The new construction builder in our area puts them in starter homes.
