Why would anyone want it to fail?
Exactly. Just some see the lack of detailed updates as a red flag. Everyone wants new developments to succeed.

@mendyt - there's a vacuum of real info, so people are filling in the blanks. There's been nothing said about what the homes will look like, so when a picture is posted people just assume it's stock.

Nobody is hating. I think everyone wants this to succeed but there is just not much information forthcoming. I wish someone who actually has answers would join here and answer them. Could be a real boon to the project.

Want my take?

I believe there are some people who are torn apart, on one hand they desperately want to join such an idea as well, but on the other hand they cant get out of their comfort zone and leave everything behind. Therefore seeing the project fail is best for their feelings.
I came to this conclusion after talking in person to so many people about it.

Ill emphasize again: So many have tried but failed, yes there are a lot of good reasons why it should not work out, Im not saying that this has a 100% success rate, But if there was ever a time with chances to work out, then its definitely now

I said this back in July: I've seen many such projects come and go, but this one has a chance. However, they need to do a better job with PR. There needs to be a steady flow of information, and constant engagement. Besides for getting the word out there, it inspires confidence in the project. There are many who would join but don't want to waste their time with another fantasy. Engagement makes it real. It shows investment and commitment.

Just my $.02.

OK ill try to fill in some blanks:

The Tausig's are saying they have more than 100 people who signed, but of course I don't know the real number.
I believe most of the people who signed still have lots of questions and are uncertain about certain things, but I hope this will change once we get together, and there is an event this Moitse Shabbos, details and location is of course only for those who signed.

The location of the project changed, they say the reason is because, the original development in Pasco county got postponed with another year due to Covid.
The new location is in Hillsborough county, it has some downsides
1. The larger homes aren't available here (largest option is only 2600sf + 2 car garage)
3. They are not so flexible with changing the home layout
3. Hillsborough is already a more developed place so I think they wont be so forthcoming as in Pasco, plus I think its a democratic county, but this is just my theory, Im not sure if I'm right.

On the positive side:
1. This location is already confirmed and yes I know some have seen Models this week, and others are flying down shortly.
2. The development company is D.R Horton, a very large development company.
3. Lot size is either 40 or 50Ft Wide ( I think the length is 120, not sure though)
4. They have 3 options of homes, "Robie" "Cali" and "Hayden"  You can google it and look it up by yourself.

My biggest concern at the moment is type crowd and all around Moisdes Etc. I hope the event will clear this void

@Lurker I totally agree with you on this one, their PR was bad and there was a constant lack of engagement and transparency, But it seems like things are finally moving now

Seems like people don't want it to fail, rather they want to point out red flags so people don't lose their money.

1. No matter how many people I asked I've yet to hear any details.  Not saying that nothing happened but something is definitely not black on white here.
2. Besides the deposit of 5K you are not signing contract with the Tausig family, you are signing with the developers.
Not saying that 5K is nothing but they wouldn't do all this just to scam out 100 people with 5K, have I been the scammer here, then I would've targeted higher numbers.

2600sf is not that big, its a pity that they cant have bigger houses, when moving out especially to a place like FL you would want 3500sf+

3500 sf?? Setting that bar a little high... 2600 is very decent for a 4-5 bedroom here. In my area, houses are routinely between 1900-2700 sf. There are larger homes, but they are considered higher end. I do agree that 2600 sf being the largest size is inconvenient.

It's doable, it just raises the price, especially if you're using pre-existing models from an established FL developer. We don't really do basements here.

More reason to need a bigger house.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Just makes it harder to get that square footage. You need more land.
