I don't think price is the only important thing to be negotiated. Builder's contracts are notoriously one-sided. It's a buyers market, and you may be able to get concessions you would not have got one year ago (extras, late interest etc).

Actually, in the starter market it's very much a sellers market right now. The market as a whole could probably be called a sellers market right now, albeit at a lower price level than at the peak. Overall, the single family home inventory is now less than 3 months, which is very tight. Yah, I don't get it either, we'll see where it is a year from now.
