Summerlin was one of those. Most people have seen as we've started developing this property, we've added some significant retaining walls and had to adjust and pivot as we went." "We used that natural barrier, even required green space location, to have this transition between a smaller product and a larger product. It actually flows really nicely with the topo of the property, and we felt like that became something that instead of being a challenge, was an opportunity to diversify our products." "I think we are very fortunate at Louder New Homes that we have people in house that can be very creative with floor plan design. Especially even the house that we're in now, it's a corner lot. It's one of the most challenging lots to build on. The footprint was very small. We had to make adjustments to the plan. We made it work."
