I thought folks on this thread might be interested in learning that khov.com is starting a new development in Monroe, NJ too, on Cranbury Station Road. The development is called The Orchards. A couple of model homes should be ready in the next month of so.
Hi ,
We are planning to buy gold model at Stratford.the builder has priced it at 599k.Has anybody booked gold model recently.just wanted yo know has the builder negotiated or give any upgrades.Is 599k overpriced for the house.feedback is high appreciated.
anandit, not sure if you are aware, khov has opened up new community Orachards at Monroe with similar pricing. pl let me know if you need further information about community or town in general
But I have heard that they are all sold out for the1st phase.Please let me know if anyone has booked gold at Stratford recently.
Hi, Last sunday the base price for gold was 609K, but we went back on Thurday(5/2/13) and the price has gone up by another 10K and they are asking now 619K for gold. So we went ahead and reserved one anyways, since we will have 5 days to think about it..
I am not sure whether these houses are worth 619K..? The builder is going crazy with the prices but I am sure they will be cutting down their prices soon, as they are very high now..
So, now I am not sure whether to go ahead with the 619K price or cancel it now wait for some more time :-(
The homes will be worth what the buyer is willing to pay for it. Personally, I believe the builders have a open field day with these price fluctuations as there are no comparables.. still, on average I think the Gold has sold for 525k and I would not even pay at THAT price point.

The prices have changed since you posted.
Its 625 K for Gold, 605 K for Montgomery, 600 K for Woods and 575 K for Guilford. As you may have noticed, the prices now, are based according to the total floor size of the model and not the number of bedrooms, as before. Hence Montgomery costs more than Woods today.
Prices of all the models increased when they opened up the 4B section of the community. As of Jan-Feb 2013, they were quoting 565 K for the Gold, 555 K for the Woods, 540 K for the Montgomery and 536 K for the Guilford. But at that time only four lots were available in the community and the new 4B section was not yet open to all. Apparently, for the new 4B section, there were more than 100 applicants. Now, commonsense says, everything is based on demand and supply. The current prices definitely look appalling, but the current realty market in the United States is improving as we can see in the newspapers and bank rates are at an all time low. Finally, it depends on the buyer how much he likes the community and really wants to be a part of it. No realtor can take a decision for any prospective buyer.
I may not be able to answer any of the questions in this forum, but I will keep writing what I know.
