There's a high-stakes tug of war over new homes. Many people who signed contracts before houses were built now are scared to buy them. Builders don't want them to back out and are keeping deposits.
more than she would have paid for it. Prices in the area had risen while it was getting built. And she says it quickly went under agreement and is listed as sold on the builders website.
"Most builders are going to be very cautious about just blanket giving a deposit back out of the goodness of their hearts," says Paul Schwinghammer, the president of the Indiana Builders Association. "If there becomes this word on the street that Bob the builder is giving everybody their money back, Bob's gonna be out of business pretty quick."
"There were some builders who say they're just keeping the deposit," Kahn says."Their contract allows for it... some are saying we'll just keep it.""Everything in these agreements is drafted in favor of the developer," says Craig Rothburd, an attorney in Florida who specializes in consumer protection cases. He says the buyers sign a contract which states they can lose their deposit.

The 7 Coolest New Motorcycles from EICMA 2022The history of automotive and motorcycle manufacturer crossovers goes way back, but Aston Martin's entry into the segment is a first. Partnering with custom bike builders at Brough Superior, the joint effort was first introduced in 2019 as a concept track bike. First deliveries happened earlier this year, but Aston Martin wanted to introduce an ever more powerful version for good measure. In adding 'Pro' to the end of the AMB 001 nameplate, the bike also received a 25% power increase to 225 hp, a solid billet aluminum crankcase, and a Verdant Jade paint scheme. The 997cc twin-cylinder engine was already ridiculously potent beforehand, but the increase in power has given the track-specific model a power-to-weight ratio of 1.28 hp per kilogram. That's a staggeringly high ratio, similar to that of the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro hypercar that inspired the new two-wheeled model. Beyond extreme power, the bike is a feat of engineering, with CNC-machined aluminum double-wishbone front suspension, a front spoiler and side wings producing effective downforce, and a horizontal rear stabilizer. The riding position makes for a wind tunnel effect at high speeds, and for some aching wrists as well. If unbeatable lap times are worth an aching back, then act fast before the limited run of 88 production bikes is sold out. For the price of $120,000, this is sure to be a collector's item above all else.
