Per your post, Rodney, I think the "calibre" of home is a main issue. The lots are big, and there are square footage minimums for the constructions as well as a few things concerning natural tones and out buildings (although there are a few blue and green houses, and almost everyone has a shed)--so I think a major issue is maintaining similar sized houses and maintaining property values by having home plans "approved" before building. On the one hand--that's a good thing: I think--it will make sure a two room purple and lime manufactured home with an 8 foot rusty chain linked fence surrounding isn't built next to a half-million dollar mansion....but it also has the downfall of having to run what you want to do by a group of strangers who get a vote in what your home looks like.

Your point about the "market" affecting the sellability is well noted.

Thanks!
