Every builder in Putnam County is having the same conversation right now.
Not enough lots. Too much competition on the ones that exist.
And the good infill parcels get bought by whoever happened to drive down that street
So here's what happened on Clay Avenue.
There's one square left on a board that's otherwise full.
Homes on every side. Utilities already run. Sewer tap with a paid record on file.
That's what the next THREE minutes are about the zoning, the exact utilities, the one limitation I'm not going to hide from you, and why it's priced under the street.

One last thing, and then I'll let you go.
There's a price for building in a finished neighborhood.
Somebody always pays it.
Somebody paid it when the water main got run down Clay Avenue.
Somebody paid it when the sewer went in.
Somebody paid the tap fee on this parcel and it's sitting on the county record right now.
Somebody paid for the road, the power poles, the gas line.
Years of it. Paid by people who aren't you.
So the question isn't whether you pay for this build. It's what you pay with.
