How do these things work?

Do you have to bring a briefcase full of nonconsecutive, unmarked bills for them to show you the models or do you need an agent/broker?

Hahaha...not quite.  You'll have to register with the builder and then sign a liability release form and ask one of the sales people to take you over to the models.  Definitely do go with an agent so you can split the broker co-op with them because once you register without an agent they won't offer a broker co-op if you bring an agent later on.
 
Nevermind.

Am I smoking crack or did they lower the "from" price on their website?

No crack... they lowered it... just before they released pricing last week.

Notice that TIC has not lowered it on their site though.

Sure have, just shows that TIC is too subborn for their own good.  Hopefully they can take a que from TM.

Plan 3 @ LV vs. Plan 1 Maricopa...comparable?  cept LV's 3 is more space efficient (potentially 5bd) and costs 100,000 less.  I'm curious to see what the "premium" lots (like my #31) go for.

As for the weirdly shaped great room, how 'bout this?

I think TIC may have some sway... but they will probably be more lenient because they know PS has its own issues with sales (TayMo can always point to the sales pace of the other developments to back their pricing up).

You guys think TIC still have control on pricing for LV?  Or is it all on TayMo?

I would say TM is running the show out there.  It's their land so they will set their own prices (but within some reason of the surrounding developments and re-sales).
 
Any know what premium lots go for typically?  They told me they aren't sure if prices will go up and didnt tell me what the premium lots (5k lots) compared to the average 3200-3500 sq ft lots.

You can look at Sevilla as an example.  The big premiums were on the lots with the driveways.  For the lots without the driveways, the lots had prices that had a difference of $5k-$10k.  I'd be surprised if the lot premiums will be larger than that as we already have seen that TM is not the greedy pig that TIC is.
 
one of the homes in Sevilla with the driveways, the one that went for 659K, also had about a 60ft deep back yard.  I started crying when i saw it for not signing up ahead of time. I would have if i new a lot like that was going to be available with a driveway.

The couple that bought that one were on the prequal list even before a list for Sevilla existed  :o
Apparently they tried to purchase in a different VanDaele development and were unsuccessful so they were added to the top of the Sevilla list.
 
OK, $5-10k isn't that bad.  I was thinking it would be more than that for a 5-6k lot....assuming the TM lots go that big.  They are planning to release 22 homes this year, so I'll have to wait at least a year to get to the phases.  By then, prices can go up......or go down. 

Isn't Sevilla by Van Daele Homes.  I thought only Irvine Pacific was by TIC?

Irvine Pacific is not building over in Portola as we speak.  Sevilla is by Van Daele Homes. 
 
The Sevilla people quoted 10-25k extra for premium lots, but when I looked at the price list for the last phase release it didn't seem to follow that trend.  It occurred to me that they might be setting premiums based on how many people on the pre-qual list had expressed an interest in that lot.  A couple of the properties sold in the last phase release had a 10-15k premium, which I'm sure was partly due to them being relatively far from the freeway, but possibly due to several people expressing an interest in the facing of the front door.

The LV people that I talked to indicated that the lots on the far side from the freeway would have some premium, but they didn't specify how much. 
 
Got an email this afternoon from Taylor Morrison....it had a special coupon to pass along to my buyers for a $1k credit towards closing costs if they sign their purchase agreement by June 30th.

Is this in addition to the $2500 they are already offering for using their lender?
