The price in which a lot sells for is the most important factor when forecasting what a new construction home will sell for on that lot. If a developer gets into a piece of dirt for X amount of dollars and forecasts a selling price of Y but the current market will only bear Z it leaves little to no margin for the developer as well as the future builders.
Lots can be listed for any price but if they are not selling, which the beginning 2007 to current 2008 have shown (93% decrease in total sales), then the prices are just to high. The price has to be low enough to make economical sense all the way across the board and in a market where inventory is high; prices have to be highly competitive otherwise the lots will have market times of 365 days or more.
