There are no exchanges, returns or refunds on any fully executed agreement with an authorization to construct the home. In the event that you have not signed an agreement and wish to cancel, your down payment is fully refundable within 30 days of the initial down payment.
If you use a credit card for a payment and there is a cancellation, the credit card company transaction fee will be deducted from the amount of your refund.
