Rouzan is $700k custom homes. Really, really nice homes

They’re $700,000 homes that are constructed from shite materials and built as cheaply and quickly as possible. They’re not “nice” homes, they’re “nice looking” homes, which is a massive distinction. Go to Highland road if you want to see homes that are “really, really nice” and built to retain their value for the long haul

Exactly. Several years ago a local builder took a couple who he was building for and showed them the poor quality being used in Rouzan. He pointed things out and said that in 15 years these houses would be falling apart. He was showing the couple the difference between cheap vs quality products. Most of Rouzan is built with "cheap" quality producgts. Time will tell....
Will agree that they do look nice right now. Wouldn't buy though because they are on top of each other.

I worked for a contractor that did the electrical on one of the very first houses there. One of the first 4 or 5 . It was anything but poorly built and it was constructed with good materials. The only shitty thing was the small lot.

A rich dude that lives in the CCLA built it as a wedding gift for his son. We did all his commercial work and did the house as well. It was done right.

Can't vouch for any of the others in that neighborhood.
