Our Selections

Our strategy for choosing options was to begin with a "Pie in the Sky" configuration of options and upgrades that included everything we would love to have in our new home.  Our sales rep gave us the options list for the Oakmont which we took home and reviewed for a few days.  When it came time to negotiate we couldn't quite get to a number we were happy about with our "Pie in the Sky" so we needed to remove some items.  Overall, we are very happy with what we ended up with and feel we negotiated a fair deal.  Here are the dirty details:
