[QUOTE="jakeman, post: 3711991, member: 10690"] Shaw builds a lot of pretty ****ty houses. I build a few pretty nice houses. His costs have indeed gone up, I can guarantee you that. It cost me 28% more in materials alone to build one in 2021 over what it cost me in 2020. My selling price on 2 pretty similar homes, with the last one being 55 sq ft smaller was over $80k more for the one built in '21, and it took me 3 months longer to build it. That's not all; it gets worse. The waiting time on windows and brick have more than doubled from '21 going into '22. Currently 22 weeks to receive windows, and 6 months on brick, if you order them today. It's really pretty hard to put a number on that, but I'd never go so far as to excuse Shaw Homes for bad behavior. I'm just saying, everything he's saying isn't BS. [/QUOTE]
