Be careful, The Pocono area is being devoloped like wildfire. I see signs up all over the place for new cheap homes with eazy drive to NEW YORK. The mount Pocono area has some really stinky areas since NY city found it could dump a lot of their section 8 low lifers there. The arera around Albrightville is up for sale . Every other home is for sale ,,,A bad sign.Every one up there has a well, with all the new development you can bet there will be a lot of dry wells in a few years.

There you go again SWB. You make assumptions and accusations and generalizations like "greedy tract builders".

1. Dont confuse greed with capitalism. Those builders are in business to make money. Plain and simple and their aint nothin wrong with that. Mostly becuase they employ your neighbors and shop and dine in your city.

2. often times builders have no chocie but to build spec houses (houses not sold prior to building them) and that is becuase they would loose more having to carry the vacant land then if they build it spec and cut the price.
