FWIW, my mother is (was, retired Dec 94), who has strongly suggested that I 
don't go with Pulte. She says they are hard to work with before and after the 
sale. Most everything in the house is an "upgrade". She has also highly 
recommended Centex and David Weekly as alternatives. Last week I look at some 
Holligan homes in Frisco. I don't know much about the company, but I was 
impressed with the construction and the flexibility in plans. They tend to 
build exactly what you want. The salesman told me if I wanted, I could bring 
him my own plans and they would fit an existing plan or develop an entirely 
new plan, no added cost for arch. design. Pretty impressive. Has anyone else 
got experiences to share about Holligan?
