Why isn't anyone discussing the homeowners who are being hurt by the builder coming into a neighborhood and significantly lowering home values by building cookie cutter tract homes that destroy the vision of the community? This is what is happening in some of these neighborhoods. Look at what happened to Dogwood Lakes. There are a few beautiful custom homes in there. Then Steven's came in and built out the entire neighborhood with much lower end tract homes on slabs. What do you think that did to the existing homes ? Now they are trying to do this to Majestic Oaks where there are approx. 24 homes that stand to loose value. Trust me the homeowners are much better off with out these tract homes coming in. Why can't they at least attempt to built a unique neighborhood that will be mutually beneficial to all ? The homeowners have been pleading with the developer to help, but so far it seems they don't care. As long as they get a quick profit off of the lots for their investors, it doesn't matter if the middle class homeowner gets screwed!
