When I got my Oldsmobile, I didn't get any "upgrades". Yet if one got the exact same vehicle with a Cherolet brand name on it, one would have had to add about 25 "options" to have the same vehicle.
Just cause you call it an "upgrade" doesn't mean that it wasn't supposed to be "standard". Those builders just strip out everyting that is not absolutely code required, just so that they can add it back in at inflated prices, or so that you can "think" you are getting "consessions". You are not. It is just the same old marketing gimmics to sell more product at more inflated prices.

Of course someone that is making a commission off of each sale is always looking to buy or sell. But most normal people are looking to minimise the amount the put in the pockets of the sales personnel and maximise the benifits they obtain by NOT buying anything they don't need nor don't want!
Who cares about a "pool"? That is a safety hazard and risk and substantually raises either the HOA fees OR the maintenance and operating expenses!
And who wants those pretend "upgrades"????? It has already been proven that most of those fad "granite counter tops" are toxic and/or radioactive.
KEEP your "upgrades". I'd rather have quality materials from the 1920's than the "junk" you try to pass off as an "upgrade".

"Mike4Susan" is either: a) bitter because he/she can't find a property cheaply enough, or b) a competing real estate agent.
Leave it to an agent to say in 50 + words that was already succinctly said in 5.

I do not know if this is a question, or rather a statement.
If there are better homes in the development, what is stopping you from buying the better ones. Is this location better? Why are you even considering this -no upgrades-no pool property?
There must be a reason. Talk some more.....

Then buy one of those!






No Upgrades. No Pool. There are other better homes in the development for the same/lower price.
