I have Centery community homes and they are trash fell in love with floor plan just to see it degrade less then a year. They use horrible HVAC units and there builder at least mine was always hard to get ahold of for fixes. And I have a middle tier home of theirs not the cheapest and not the most expensive plan they have but I feel bad for the people who paid in the 700-800 thousand price range to get a subpar home. Again might not be everywhere I’m in Middle Tennessee.

If you sell your 1500 Sq ft house in Southern California for 500k and you purchase a 1500 sq ft home in Fort Worth for 350k to 400k you think to yourself OK that's cheaper than California. That's great. WRONG. Because when people started moving from the west coast states they were used to outrageous, overinflated home prices. So they were eager to pay 35% less. But, that $350k home you just bought was only 180k a year before. Why? Because the home sales industry encouraged sellers here to double the price just for little Ole you. Because you didn't refuse to pay the asking price. Now Texas is becoming Southern California.

I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Evelyn Infurna. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.

There is nothing wrong with a boxy home. I am tired of seeing strange, angled hallways and niche walls. You should be able to place a console table or book shelf against a wall. This errant desire to create a bay window which steals space from your porch is not desirable. Please create homes that are practical with wall space that can be used for to hang pictures, book cases or furniture.

That's not a fair ranking on Tri-Pointe since you have no data on them. I wouldn't even add them to the list because of that. However them and Toll build in the same communities so quality might be similar based on subs used. I personally like the floor plans Tri-Pointe offers. All the Houston homes are all boxy and you really need a 60ft lot to feel like the space actually opens up. For their price point they have something for everyone, just note that 40 and 50 ft lots are going to have some questionable sq ft utilizations in certain areas like the family/dining room or the upper floor bedrooms

Meritage Homes - buyer beware. Neighbor had a new home built by them. Moisture kept coming through slab causing mold throughout the home. Home was built over neighborhood sewer line. Meritage kept sending their punch list people to attempt fix on an engineering defect. Had to hire expert and sue in court. Won. They bought home back - neighbor (who got sick) moved. Meritage then put lipstick on the pig and resold the property for more. They disclosed nothing!

When it comes to all the "C" ranking homes or below, the best advice I have heard is not be cheap to hire a home inspector. One in the middle of the home construction, and of course another towards the end. Buying a home from the Tier C and below it can be a toss up, Good or BAD ! and like most agree it comes down to the developer's sub contractor on each area / town / state... Overall, the first time buyers or the majority aim at the C tier due to affordability $ x SQF. I wish you can see a HIGHLAND home with a 1,200/sqf at $300k, but you will NOT. So stock with Tier C offering 1,500/sqf for $230. So overall wish the Tier C can op the quality vs quantity. Feel that in most cases with better quality comes with less problems/customer complaints.. and for just a bit more $$$ or reducing the sqf. (on a separate note, does some home's builders need to give a humongous backyard the site of a football field?)

After I heard your comment on stucco I thought I would comment. If this is the synthetic stucco you should treat the house as if radioactive. Is was developed to use on block homes like in Florida but should be avoided with wood frame houses. Some states ban it altogether. After it was originally developed they ran into mold issues. So they came out with synthetic stucco 2.0 - with made the issue worse. It forms a tight skin over the exterior to keep the water out. Unfortunately, when it develops cracks like around doors or windows (it has a useful life of 20 years) the water gets in and it can't get out and now the mold problem is real bad. There was a lawsuit in my area against one of the builders on your list (you can guess which one) when a problem with mold was discovered on a relatively new house and true to form, the builder refused to fix it. The owners eventually won - but it took a couple of years and they could not live in the house in the meantime.

@@movingtotexas Thank you for replying - Regular stucco is not the problem - its fine. Its that builders are now using synthetic stucco - also know as Dryvit. I would guess that, nationwide, most of the new "stucco" home you see will be the synthetic stucco. I think that in some places it requires a RE disclosure when its sold and I read that a lot of realtors will not show homes using Dryvit/synthetic stucco. Regular, traditional stucco breathes and allows moisture to escape to the outside, while Dryvit is more of a tight skin. Unless its installed correctly, and inspected and maintained every few years, these mold problems may occur. I guess its cheaper to install than traditional stucco. Its hard to get builders to fix this as they point fingers at the manufacturers and the manufacturers say it was the builders installation that caused the problems. Please note that, where we are, sometimes listings will only say stucco, when they are, in reality,, synthetic stucco. Thanks again - as a homeowner - and seeing other folks problems with it - this is sort of a hot button issue with us as this material is a serious health threat.

I wish you would use dates on these builders. Seems the quality has gone down in recent years. Taylor Morrison homes were excellent in 2010-. Lennar USED to be a better quality. Ashton Woods had great standards too in 2012. Perry used to have excellent homes in the 90’s. I think a lot of quality has declined-PROFIT OVER PEOPLE! Sad for the prices we pay for cheaper quality. SAD!

Was going to buy a Lennar home but something felt really off with their homes. I just felt like I was paying $300,000 but the construction felt like trash. Ended up buying a Meritage Home instead. Will be closing later this month! I also feel like Drees homes is not an option for a vast majority of buyers since they have like million dollar homes.

DR Horton should have been ranked F. We are in one built in 2021 and are desperately trying to sell. Had problems from literally day 1. Getting DR Horton to stand behind anything has been a struggle. Asked for a list of stuff for the 12 month warranty and they sent a warranty guy out that stated our area wasn’t his normal area and “our guy” was on vacation. This guy knew nothing about anything. Finally I just asked him to leave with the list. Then call after call to his boss with NO returned calls. They sent a crew out to fill all the cracks in the sheet rock and then NOTHING else was done on the list. And it was an extensive list of things just not completely properly from the beginning. I had to fix stuff myself and hire a couple of contractors. This house was near our sons home who was having our first grandchild when we bought. DR Horton has definitely been a live and learn experience but never again.
