The thing that really bugs me is the attitude that it's all about numbers and money and that people's lives are somehow secondary to what's at stake for the builder. @ Michael - That is exactly when terms like this would become a big problem and is exactly why home builders have them in their contracts.

Everyone bought just as the market was peaking (read: $$$) and then the developer encountered two years worth of lawsuits from an unhappy neighbor. Needless to say, the prices went down with the market and there were a lot of unhappy feelings, but like you said, builders contracts are binding. Thank for a good reminder to all of us.

If nothing goes wrong, of course there is no problem. It something does go wrong, however, it would not be a very pleasant two years. @ Charles - It’s kind of like gambling for those who choose to sign such a contract.
