Couple describes 'nightmare' in building new home

A family's new home is unhealthy and not up-to-code.

[@brad9548]

Hire an inspector prior to closing....very important to do.

They were very fortunate to get a full refund.

I live in a 1919 California Bungalow....will out last me....solid as a rock! I have seen new construction here in San Francisco...and most homes and apartments are constructed of cheap particle board, and some which are not quite ten years old are showing mold, rot and cracking. Heck, we even have a new condo skyscraper which is sinking and some 26" out of plumb!

Welcome to the new Americo and cheap labor

[@lisaoloughlin6476]

You need to sue the builder immediately!!!!!!

[@senorgato70]

Buy back the home. pay for moving expenses. pay for inconveniences. Pay for emotional distress.

[@D-Major_Beats]

New Builds from state to state been bad. I hate new builds, like new cars always a problem.

[@tublisvaj8966]

At least the builder buys it back

[@moa3008]

Shouldn’t it be buyer beware?

[@oaxaca1948]

when you buy a home any home get an inspector.

[@johnnyperucca1434]

this is all unnecessary if the builder will fix the issues, they like the house and its design seems like. this is a perfect example of overdoing the outcome procedure. buy the house back? ridiculous

[@PrincessOPD_Utah]

I heard it's Deanie Wimmer and Captain Kirk's fault.. again!!!... darn it!!!!!

[@theblondeone8426]

why do the news ladies have to YELL the entire time

[@burtbenz9964]

Tornados such it up. No matter what

[@cdm386]

savage

[@diegolara4202]

So they never actually contacted the builder and went straight to the news? She said "she hasn't asked them to fix the problems because she doesn't trust them". What if they would have fixed the problems?

[@saidufofanah2210]

The first part id agree with but idk if I’d want the same builder fixing the problems he’s caused.

[@jjuanmarin]

she has a point you don't trust the people that fucked up so much to fix it properly

[@johnnyperez1969]

Just give them their money back!!

[@jjuanmarin]

she kept yapping the guy never spoke a word

[@ducheau100]

she's the husband

[@euanreid6682]

I'm sure the average Iraq civilian will mourn for them.

[@turnbullac6315]

just rent ..problems solved

[@justinedse3314]

Bad neighbors, too much noise, can't paint, can't modify things? Lol

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

Good luck on that. WORST is renting from family!! I'd rather sleep in my car.
