These are in the minority. (But you can tell the difference in quality of construction, and finishes.) Everything felt solid, though materials varied widely. Check out the site at

Nothing as low as $100k in the first phase, I think the affordable row houses were in the $120s. The biggest flaw at Mueller IMO is The Gap, where if you make 80% of MFI plus $1 you are booted out of the affordable program, but the price jump is about $100k. The effect is to effectively ban middle class families from Mueller.
