During a recent government meeting, David DeMarco from Pulte Homes provided an update on the construction of residential units in the Farmstead area of Rockville. DeMarco indicated that the new units will be similar to those currently being built in the vicinity, with expected pricing in the range of $550,000 to $650,000. However, he noted that the final pricing will be determined closer to the market launch, suggesting that the new units may be priced higher due to their premium location.

Concerns regarding affordability were raised during the discussion, with one participant emphasizing the importance of keeping housing accessible for residents. Despite acknowledging the quality of the development, the participant reiterated their worries about the potential financial burden on future homeowners. The meeting highlighted ongoing discussions about balancing development with community needs, particularly in terms of housing affordability.
