false advertising at Derby Hills;
As you guys know, it seemed like the Derby Hills development by Pardee homes in Carmel Valley seemed “invincible” for a while with a waiting list >400 strong and stable prices. Since early August, there have been chinks in the armor. Now 5 homes (3 plan twos and 2 plan 3’s) have become “available” due to continent buyer not being able to sell their previous stucco boxes.
I was interested in a 3B and they called and said one became available. I saw their posted price for that 3B (their only one) initially at 1.399 drift down to 1.327 down to 1.307 by August 14th. When I walked into the office with the print out of the 1.307 number, they stated that the house actually is available for 1.347 and that the lower number must not be accurate. Anyone know if they have violated any false advertisement laws or if they are held to the lower price as advertised? Whole thing left me with a very bad taste in my mouth and further disdain for large homebuilders…
