Ditto Ira.
No whining just expressing points of view.
I was approached by a builder to co-venture on a 20 unit single home
development next door to a hospital where most employees have a long
commute. He can still put up a decent 3 BR, 2 BA, 2 car garge home in
Loris, SC [about 10 miles from Myrtle Beach} for sale at $115,000 and net
$15,000 per house.
SC imposes a builder to post a bond and provide a 1 year 100% warrantee
and a ten year limited warranty.
Let's face it, the builders will get what the market will tolerate as will
sellers in an inflated market.
Sincerely,
John
