Flipside on where I live is cheaper land development costs for the developer (a municipality, usually). They want to cheap out since it’s easier sell to the municipal voters and contractors give cheap bids in return, deciding to cheap out on the work.
this is so common it’s disgusting.
I’ve had a company charge me $30k for a new roof and refused to come out to fix the leaks and blown off shingles.
I had to go out and fix my own damn roof.
bunch of fucking thieves.
I miss the days where everything wasn’t run like a corporation trying to bleed a stone.
