Go out and make a ridiculously low offer; you may be surprised at the answer to your bid.
A real estate friend of mine is telling me that builders are are willing sell finished homes at cost or even less just to free up the money they have sitting in them.
Rates will go up from here as the credit worthiness of the USA comes into question.
Do some research and figure out the actual cost of building the home you want and make an offer 10% below that. Negotiate up to the actual cost but no more; walking away is a very powerful tool in this market.
