Does it vary with community or can you not do that?
There's this really pretty community development opening by my house and they're starting to sell homes. I was wondering if most communities allow you to just purchase the land and build later? Thank you!
It depends on if the lots are intended for custom built homes or if you are talking about a sub-division. If it is a sub-division the entire layout of houses was already approved of by the city. Selling one lot to build another house that does not match the rest would require a new set of sub-division plans, and permits, as well as effect the projected city tax budget.
I doubt you would manage to buy a lot in a sub-division. Even where the homes are custom you have to build within certain guidelines.

Every new home a builder finishes in a certain development has r rooms. What algebraic expression shows the number of rooms in 15 homes?
r รท 15
15r
r + 15
15r
The reason that it is this expression is because it is 15 home * rooms
15r is what represents 15 * r
How much, percentage wise, should we ask the builder to cut the price? They are not offering incentives however they are more than willing to negotiate the price. This is a development in the outlying counties of Chicago/Rockford.
It is a slow time of year for builders/developers. And you typically don't run the risk of offending the seller when you are dealing with a builder or developer, so start your offer low (25% off?) and start the negotiation.
Good luck!
they built 150 homes but only 4 have been sold, theve halted construction, whats to happen to those few homeowners if this development go's belly up?
The development will eventually be sold off and another investor will pick it up and finish it, that is to say, eventually. There is no telling when it might happen, it depends on your local housing market and the economy as a whole. If the developer made specific promises to the four and did not follow through (and if they have not gone bankrupt) then you may be able to sue for specific performance and/or damages, but you would have to consult with a lawyer.
I am currently applying for a USDA rural development home loan and I was wondering how hard it is to be approved for one, I have already been qualified by my income. Once I am approved is it a pain to go through or is it somewhat easy?
The USDA product is a simply wonderful one. Qualification is easy and so is the process. The only caveat is that both the borrower and the property must meet the program guidelines. Sounds like you meet the income guidelines and as long as your property is in an approved area, you should have not trouble.
From a loan officer's prospective, I wish there were more approved areas in my location so that I could use this program more often. USDA will finance the closing costs, it is 100% financing, and they are not credit score driven like Fannie Mae. This program makes it easy to get people into homes at a great rate and with minimal, if any, expense.
Lucky you!

Survey suggests softening attitudes to development as housing ...
Perceptions of newbuild development have altered during the course of the financial crisis, says smartnewhomes.com, which has conducted a national ‘Nimby’ survey to assess current views of residential homebuilding across the UK.
The phrase ‘not in my backyard’ (Nimby) became synonymous with the homebuilding industry during the construction boom of the nineties, with local development one of society’s most contentious topics. However, a poll of over 3,000 consumers, conducted by smartnewhomes.com in September, has uncovered softening attitudes to newbuild in the current climate, as many people start to acknowledge the growing lack of supply across the country.
Over 55 per cent of all respondents to the survey disagreed that there had been ‘too much’ development in their local area in the past (Graph 1), with over 75 per cent citing only a moderate or very little amount over the last two years (Graph 2).
Smartnewhomes.com believes more accommodating attitudes to development have arisen due to current perceptions of availability – a quarter of all respondents questioned were not confident they would be able to find a good home in their preferred location if they were to move.
