Honestly I wouldn’t care if the inside floor plan is the same. But it looks very tacky when I see the same exact house next to each other in these cookie cutter neighborhoods.

I’d just make sure the outside is constructed differently if possible.

I agree.

I would approach the builder and make sure the color palette is different, request an upgraded landscaping packages and something like shutters to make sure aesthetically they don't look exactly the same

Do we let some areas just die like Shreveport? Or do we try to incentivize some hard working, farmers who love America to move here?

I don't understand why this would be a bad thing snd it's not like if they buy 40 acres in Ferriday then they're going to be murdered for being white.

Louisiana's population has been suffering and we have plenty of fertile farm land that's under utilized.

Could be a great opportunity to bring in some American loving folks who are productive members of society and will immediately boost our economy.

I'm not sure how exactly you could incentivize them to move to Louisiana. Maybe buy some of Bill Gates land he bought along the delta and offer it to the South Africans if they successfully farm it and contribute positively to our economy

You could try to enforce the agreement, but in the end, how far are you willing to go? The builder bets on that you my bitch and complain, but their lawyers will outlast your lawyer.

And then on top of that- they'll likely spend the money to change the house slightly instead of paying it to OP and his new neighbors are going to now know they had to change their floor plan because their neighbor bitched snd complained about the plan.

I'm more curious what the OP wants, is he looking for the plan to be altered or does he want a settlement?

The point is, he has a written agreement. You’re correct that there won’t be much value affected, but they signed the agreement and have now broken it. Should be able to get a small amount from the builder, take a vacay on them!

This is incredibly shortsighted.

You immediately make your new neighbors hate you and the builder is going to offer them free upgrades and changes instead of offering a settlement to the existing owner and if you ever have minor warranty issues in the future the builder is going to tell them to go frick themselves.

His best option is to be kind and politely ask that they ensure the colors will be different and then ask them for something that's reasonable like upgraded landscaping, maybe some fencing or something that will "increase" his property value.

I don't think most of yall have ever met dudes that are construction PMs. Approach them with threats and being an a-hole and they're not going to just bow down and pay them whatever they want and if it's a large scale tract home builder they have lawyers on retainer.

But if they have 8 plans in a 200 lot community, and this one is obviously popular then you're going to have 20+ of the exact same house in the neighborhood already.

Throwing a fit about the inside while the outside is different is confusing to me.

I know a lot of these guys though and if OP tells me the builder I could probably tell him who to talk to and if he's going to get anything

Floorplan, not elevation. Yes, it’s confirmed with the builder. They admitted they did it. But pretty much said, sorry but mistakes happen.

Is your specific floor plan name is called out in your agreement snd they're advertising the new home with the same plan name?

The devil is going to be in the details on this man and honestly even if you raise a big to do about it - they'll just be able to slightly alter the plan and call it something different.

Did they offer you any potential solutions or just say get over it?

Also why don't you just tell us the builder? It's likely DSLD, Alvarez, Horton or Level

The written agreement says the same floorplan cannot be built within two lots. So the closest it could be in three houses away. It’s next door.

Floorplan or house?

And you're 1000% sure it's the exact same plan?

What would you do in my situation?

I would be reasonable and relax. I would ask them the colors and finishes and if it upsets you just make sure it doesn't look the same on the outside. It's not like someone's going to walk your house and that house before they buy so if the elevations aren't the same I don't understand why your property value would go down?

If it's 200 lots and 8 plans then I'm not sure what you expect.

Honestly if it's a nice floor plan (you wanted it) I don't get what the big deal is. Also are you sure it's the same as yours? Like exactly the same? If you throw a big fit the builder is likely going to just move a small non-structural walls to make it "different". But if I was the builder and you didn't shite then I would be a dick and paint it the exact same color as yours with the same brick.

But what does your written agreement say with them- no home shall be constructed within 2 lots of my lot that's the same floor plan but different elevation?

You can go to a lawyer but what exactly are you entitled too outside of them slightly altering the plan?

Skenes and Floyd for sure.

Skenes by himself makes a damn strong argument but Floyd striking out 17 in game 1 of the CWS finals was amazing and literally a CWS record

It is impressive how well Jay has done building pitching staffs

re: Derek Curiel isn’t the SEC Freshman of the Year

Posted by Solo Cam on 5/20/25 at 7:42 pm

So here's a take no one is going to like on here

#1) Volantis was a stud this year but he was a reliever and Curiel had a bigger impact and was a better player.

#2) Curiel faded in the last month of SEC play, he hit a freshman wall and was not nearly as consistent, it's ok and he's still going to be an amazing all American level player but he did.

#3) I actually like this. Piss him off and light a fire. You feel disrespected and like you got hosed? Good. Go fricking nuts and make them all look like assholes for not voting for you.

#4) Texas was the champion and Volantis was a really good player on the team that won the SEC title. That does carry some weight. Fair or not- it does.
