  1. Well, I’m glad they are selling and I am happy that there are down to their last couple of units, but the subtext sounds like it is still a rather soft market.

    And I pity that poor resale at $100,000 less than the developer units (if I read that correctly).

    It is always a disadvantage to go up against a builder or developer when you are selling a home!
