Nowadays, most of the estates don't title on the initially communicated dates. Title delays have become normal with all estates. As of today, Boutique homes provide us with a price protection for 15 months from the initial contract signing date.
Almost all the competitors who have price protection policy increase the price by about 500$ to 1000$ per month's delay. But Boutique homes have no policy on what happens after this fixed protection period.
What they typically do is ask for a huge amount which could be slightly more than half the price increase from the day you signed the contract.
For obvious reasons, the sales team will never inform you about this though.
If you are thinking about building with Boutique and have not signed the PwC, make sure the title date is no later than 9 months from now,so that you'll have 6 months buffer period.
If you have signed the PwC and are waiting to sign the HIA, don't rush into signing the HIA unless the title date is in 9 months from the PwC date.
