You make a good point using The Ridge as an example and it goes along with my statement that expensive doesn't mean good. There are only 1 or 2 contractors (that have built there) that I would trust to build me a home, yet all would be considered expensive by most. My parents live there and have seen considerable problems with many of their neighbors homes. My dad has spent the last 15 years in a second career as a contractor/developer and did his own home much to the initial reluctance of Russell. I'd put the quality of his home up against anything there, and the key was finding the right guys (not necessarily the most expensive guys or the "standard" local guys).
I live in another Russell "hood", and have seen the same....unfortunately first hand. My current project is to correct many problems that have resulted from poor workmanship from a major (and expensive) builder in Russell neighborhoods.....yeah, I know....just because a builder is expensive doesn't mean he hires good subs. BTW, none of my comments in this string were ment to knock you personally, but they are valid. Like I said, I have no problem with a guy making as much as he can, but I am going to get the best value for myself...I am in fact a capitalist. Just sayin'.
