Offer made 04/30/18 Seller agent mike was great

About a week before we closed he quit and the new guy was a bit arrogant toward the buyers agent and non helpful. We had a slight problem with the appraisal where he would not give us the information we needed.

Build quality is horrible we have had nothing but problems since day 1 This is literally just a lemon house not this many problems could happen or would happen to any other house.

First it was all the normal little stuff paint drywall missing outlet plates paint on floor just sloppy and dirty.

Then we moved in and things took a downward spiral fast. We closed on june 26th and non of the little things had been resolved yet.

The ac would not cool off we had a couple hot days in a row like 112 114 outside we had our ac set to 74 it slowly climbed all afternoon till about 79. We called the ac guy he said oh you can only expect a 30 degree difference. That was on a Tuesday i believe by Friday it completely died and was blowing out hot air they could not only NOT fix it but we had to wait till Monday. Monday came ac replaced seems to be working since. Tuesday we had our 20 day follow up. The contractor called in sick so a customer care associate came and took down everything which was wrong with the house. This list grew to huge numbers because we paid for a home inspection and they found lots of things wrong with the home besides what we found, most are small non emergency types and others are not.

Hot and cold was reversed on downstairs shower

Plumbing in laundry room for sink was not hooked up to water

doors all looked like they fell off the truck all damaged on bottom right corner

Paint on carpet and tile

No caulking along baseboards

Cabinets dinged up and they had come to fix it prior by turning the door over as if we would not notice

Granite not sealed even water leaves it black.

Faceplate for outlet covers missing crooked and looked patched

Pain on all bronze hardware like sinks railing fdor stairs etc.

Tile cracked uneven in bathroom

missing and uneven paint outside all over

Front door crooked large gap to outside

All ac vents now are bent due to the ac guys repair job

Carpet on stairs not tacked down my wife tripped and hand railing is pulling away from wall.

Garage door does not stop and or reverse when met with resistance another safety issue

other monor things they said they fixed but they covered up a lot of this is cosmetic but we are not getting anywhere with getting fixed...

Some of these items were repaired hot cold reverse fixed

LAundry room stubs plumber all holes from this job were repaired although the pain person got more paint all over the floors tried to scrub the carpet and she ruined the pile

AC seems to be working for now

but today FRIDAY we had a gas leak at this point i had had enough i tried calling the after hours place disconnected i marched down to the sales office and demanded a good phone number he had the gall to say to me not to talk to him that way. I held my breath for fear of what i might do or say he gave me some number i got a hold of the after hours plumber to fix our gas leaks.

I wish a real estate lawyer would read this and contact me. I cant even get my warranty info to see what i can get fixed but i and a lot of realtors i know will be telling people of my story. I will affect their sales and then maybe i will get a response.

We are having some similar problems and I we are still building the house. I am so worried that all this *** workmanship is not going to end.

I feel cursed and I really feel for these people because this could be us!!!!

I wish you the best of luck and hope things get fixed. I don't see how a builder can operate like this!

Iโ€™m not a real estate lawyer, but we just closed and a ton of problems as well.
