Condo Developer Underpricing

I bought a condo in a 20 unit new construction building 10 months ago, I was the 2nd unit owner. Upon my closing I noticed that other units had their prices slashed up to 150k. I went from having purchased the 2nd least expensive unit to the 6th most expensive unit in the building.

Today I find out that the penthouse unit in my tier is being listed with a rooftop space I don't have and an additional parking space for the same price for which I purchased my condo, ultimately devaluing my property. This is a price drop of 150k.

Do I have any recourse with the developer selling this unit to protect my value? I think this is an excessive price drop in a short amount of time.

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
