In the contract it says that I must pay at least $2,500.00 before I can move on my land. Why?
This requirement is as much to protect you as it is to protect us. It has been our experience that people who make a commitment to their land make the best residents and neighbors, a commitment that says, "Yes, I have an investment in this property and I intend to take care of that investment." A commitment of $2,500 is, in most cases, considerably less then the down payment for a small city lot.
