Negotiate a new home build

[mfer]

All, looking into building a home, but not sure on strategy of doing so. The subdivision right now doesn't have any houses built. Any tips for proceeding would be appreciated. I know of someone else trying to build in same subdivision and he isn't getting very much off. Also, these are new homes, but not completely custom homes. Don't know if that changes much. About 60 homes total with 5 pre-sold.

Thanks for the advice.
