My Uncles son is building houses in Phoenix and his business has gone down hill. He has two 700,000 dollar houses that he can't sell right now. He said he is probably going to claim bankruptcy if he can't sell them. His girlfriend also left him to since things have gotten so bad. I guess the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
