For all the toll brother trolls, for all those who accused toll brothers of hiring trolls, for all those including myself who never heard of the word “trolls”, for the dooms day crowd 😀, the pessimists, the enthusiasts and everyone in between, for those who bought and for those who didn’t, for those who call the place “north Potomac” , for those who call the place Gaithersburg or darnestown and for those who bought in 2021 and for the person who bought the last available lot, congratulations! Life is about taking chances. It’s a beautiful community.Not perfect but wonderful nonetheless. I know. I live in mt . Prospect.

Maybe Toll hires trolls, maybe not -- but the lot-by-lot, deposit-by-deposit updates are ... unusual. Everyone can draw their own conclusions.

Seriously, do you think they hire trolls?? 🤣 The community sold out within 3 years when they projected 10. I think the naysayers are just bitter. As for the lot by lot updates, it’s folks in the community keeping everyone updated based on what we hear.

Does that poster mean Lot 1? That was sold

Resale values and appreciation likely to be terrible. The new construction homes from mass market builders all rely on low-quality subcontractors. The quality of construction labor has declined so much since 2008 that it is basically impossible for large construction companies to find competent construction labor at a scale needed to staff their Projects. Unfortunately, less than 10% of construction trade workers are actually good at their job anymore.

This is too funny! Posters first said the homes wouldn't sell for construction, yet the community is sold out. Now you're saying the quality is lacking?

Well, as someone who's lived in Mt. Prospect for over two years, I can say the quality is pretty damn great. Much better than my two previous homes that were both built well before 2008. We love this house and the community. So do our neighbors. Best example of this -- one resident in a Hamlet loves it here and decided to upsize to a Windmill. A true repeat buyer which speaks volumes about the satisfaction people have in their homes and the community.

I think the 186 families that bought homes in Mt. Prospect would disagree with your all your proselytization.

yes it was sold, we decided to let go of it and bought another lot. the premium was 135 as far as i can recall. it was way to close to the power lines and we were not going to risk it. it sold 2 or 3 weeks before lot 6.

it was weird they decided not to put it on the website at all. also the front and side areas of that lot (1) are parks.

Honestly besides the windows (which were average) the quality looked really good. Also the homes look amazing on the inside after all the decoration and the backyard with toll landscapes turns out so nice.

As a current resident, I'll agree about the windows - standard builder grade. Otherwise, really great house (my inspector agrees).
