Builders actually raising prices?

It is always good to hold onto old paperwork. I generally hit the builders about once a week. Some of them even send me spec sheets on Mondays.
I noticed that some of the spec sheets had an awful lot of SOLD banners on some of the spec homes. I also noticed that some of the prices seemed a little different.
I have 2 spec sheets in front of me. 1 is dated 6/2/09, the other is dated 5/06/09. (All figures are for the same builder)
here is how they stack up!
Lot size 5/6/09price 6/2/09 price
50 3120 $195,348 $202,423
56 3524 $211,653 $212,603
76 1527 $120,718 $122,901
8 2422 $165,840 $170,545
85 2503 $160,566 $163,817
82 2503 $165,842 $ 169,077
Please note this is NOT an entire view of the area market. While looking over the spec sheets, I also noticed that some of the prices have actually dropped from 5/6/09 to 6/2/09.
This is just to show that even though everyone says the market is still bottoming out, there are some companies that know which homes are selling and are adjusting for supply and demand!! Posted by Brian on 10:46 PM • (0) Comments • (0) Trackbacks • Permalink • Email This Post
