Default New House with No Main Water Shutoff Valve

Some friends have recently acquired a new house in a modular
community. I was surprised to find that the only way to shut off the
water supply to the house is from the street! All the houses on the
street are set up the same way!
My question is this: Is this common practice? And, if so, is the
only reason it is done is to save 10 bucks on a valve?
Help much appreciated.
Frank
