I know its been said before. Can't they just lower prices to provide sensible profits, and keep jobs and sales going.
I seem to remember in the dim and distant past, it was a third of price for land, third of price for build and a third of price was profit.
They buy up farms, so the cost per plot is nothing excessive.
