All 20 Chesapeake Pointe sales in the cited record involved homes built in 2024 or later. The record documents a young housing stock; transaction details are still needed before describing every sale as a builder's first sale.

The Lafayette map tags it as mostly new construction. The map also carries a separate neighborhood called Chesapeake Landing, with its own neighborhood and its own sales. A listing's neighborhood name is worth checking against the plat before it is used to price anything.
All recent builds
All 20 recorded sales involve homes built in 2024 or later. That provides evidence about recently built properties; the transaction details need to establish which were first sales and which, if any, were resales.
How often a house comes up
The map sets 20 sales against 43 homes and puts it at about one home in four selling each year. The two counts come from different records, the MLS and the county, so treat that as a rough figure. That pace is the neighborhood being built and sold for the first time.
It says nothing about how often owners will move once it is finished.
For a buyer choosing new
A new home's price is set by the builder, and what is included varies by contract. Before comparing one to a resale elsewhere, list what is actually in the price: lot, finishes, window coverings, landscaping, and the closing date. A relocating family on a start date should also know when the house will be finished, not only what it costs.
What a builder's purchase contract obligates you to, and what its warranty covers, is a question for the builder and for an attorney who reads the contract. Financing terms tied to a builder's preferred lender belong to that lender and to one you choose yourself for comparison.
The Lafayette neighborhood map shows Chesapeake Pointe among the other neighborhoods, each on its own terms, and the Lafayette page covers the town. The note on Baker Farms covers selling early in a neighborhood the builder is still selling.
