Development infrastructure is required before individual homes can be built. Infrastructure includes primary roads (public) and secondary roads (possibly private), utility line extensions, drainage systems, and sometimes fiber optic lines. Infrastructure development is typically builder or developer responsibility. Infrastructure completion is critical to project timeline. Inadequate infrastructure planning creates costly delays.
Pro Tip
Verify infrastructure completion before purchasing lots. Incomplete infrastructure can delay home construction significantly.
