As prices soar, some builders backing out of bargain contracts for new homes [South Florida]
Most everything was in boxes as Dottie and Gary Sahadeo prepared to move out of their Coconut Creek home to a more spacious, custom-built house west of Boynton Beach.
But with construction almost complete, the Sahadeos received an unwelcome call: Their developer was canceling their contract, requesting $150,000 more to finish the work.
“We bought stuff for it. It’s depressing,” said Dottie Sahadeo, who expected to move a year ago.
