The Villages Home Warranty Department after one year and things I learned with some tips and tricks.

[@richb.1453]

Well, there are several very good KZbin channels here in the Villages. But you are the only one with this in depth information. Very helpful video.

Invaluable information Rusty. Thank you!

Rusty,the a/c noise was a condensate pump,,,, , 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Totally get an agave plant (looks kind of like aloe vera plants). Saw one in a video with Gerry and Linda, golf cart tour of villas or bungalows in alden or atwood or what have you. So Florida to have an agave plant out there. They can get monstrous, which you probably already know, but what a beautiful sight they can be when well kept.

[@RustyNelson]

Yes there are some really cool looking plants in folks yards down here. Subscribe for new Videos: bit.ly/3aToJ3H

Awesome lightning photo!

[@debrabyrd1306]

I was thinking about getting an inspection from Delango in six months instead of a year due to your video

[@catherinehillier9155]

Phenomenal … thanks Rusty

[@debrabyrd1306]

Thanks Rusty for the information and I have sent stuff to the warranty dept and waiting for an answer because I have been here for two weeks today

[@Anthony-ko3ep]

As someone who may buy a home in TV, thanks for a great informative and educational video. I agree totally with all your advise. Keep a dated journal with names of people you spoke with, email and attach photo's and as you said when you know something is not right be persistant until they correct it. When I was a young man and bought our first home from a builder I noticed outside trim that wasn't installed correctly, I went to builders office and was told mine was done right and the others homes on the block were wrong. I told him ok , then make our house wrong also. They unfortunately love to tell you "thats the way it's supposed to be". Thanks again Rusty for a job well done.

“All of a sudden, we get a big storm or something like that...”. I am watching the weather channel & the hurricane report, LOL. We will see how your window handles Ian - hope you Villagers are safe & no damage to report.😎🌴

[@RustyNelson]

I think we dodged the bullet with this hurricane. But never take them lightly. Subscribe for new Videos: bit.ly/3aToJ3H

[@donnamlanda9789]

Rusty, Thank you so much for this video and all of the great info and wise advice. I am not moving to TV for a few more years. When the time comes for my new home purchase, I will be referring back to this video and several others of yours that are also helpful. Your videos and the time you take to make them are very much appreciated. So glad to know that TV had very little damage from Ian. My brother lives in Cape Coral, thankfully his home did not have water damage. It is heartbreaking to see all of the damage and loss to so many down in FL.

[@bfine1962]

Great video. What was the a/c noise? What was the electrical overspray fix?

[@lenacummings1313]

I went with DAngelo also. Very professional. I would still do 2 home inspections, one before moving in, one before the year is up. God bless

[@susanchristie9322]

Very informative and helpful! Thank you!

[@robcacioppo3410]

I love your videos. So I’m moving to California a couple years. I’m concerned about hard water. your video you commented on your Glass surround in your shower. Is everything hard water there? If I leave the sprinklers on will they ruin my beautiful cars?

[@RustyNelson]

Hi Rob thanks for watching. People for the most part do not leave cars in the dive. Also you are not supposed to work on cars at your house. Keeps the hood liking clean and the prices of the homes elevated. That said...You can aim the sprinklers. And yes there seems to be a heavy mineral content. The outside water is unfiltered but you can buy systems to soften or filter the water as with most places around the US.

[@RGraves]

I too had a number of issues and all were taken care of. It took a little push back on them to make sure things were corrected correctly but in the end they were. Compared to other stories I've heard about other builders I too would give them an A. It's a shame we have to qualify the rating by comparing them to other builders but it's the truth. One that was a biggie that they really didn't want to do but I wouldn't accept their patch work fix of moving the lock latch so it would lock... was that they had to remove and replace a whole window. There was either a defect in the window manufacture or it was installed inproperly. It was out of square and the sash wouldn't seat properly. It was a big fix because it requied cement work and paint on the outside and sheetrock and paint on the inside to finish it. This was all done after the year anniversary due to them trying everything under the sun to get it to close and lock without actually performing the correct fix which was to replace the window. They finally did and everything came out great and it works perfectly now. Thanks for a great video Rusty. Very informative for new buyers.

[@Susan-bb6ox]

You are very fortunate to have your issue taken care of. Some are not as fortunate.

[@lenacummings1313]

I wish we had a inspection done before we moved in. The floors needed some work and it would have been much easier to do without having to move furniture the 3 visits it took to correct the problem. We scheduled our inspection for 30 days before our anniversary date. They found a roof truss that had been repaired incorrectly. The warranty department was very helpful but you do need to stay on top of it. The warranty dept will take care of notifying the contractor but the contractors are all shorthanded so you need to make sure they follow thru.

[@carleneduke5839]

Thank you for this video. Very informative and through!

[@ruthpaige6689]

Who was the building inspector you used?

[@adamnevis7636]

Fascinating video! Thank you!

[@gary9486]

Thank you for the great video may I ask what was that noise out in the garage your furnace.

[@stevenr732]

Thank you Rusty great stuff hope to be there very soon , Hey the rain X spray put it on the faucets as well works great

[@debscribner3527]

Hi Rusty thank you for putting this together. Good to know...Great info.

[@dianebarrie7343]

Thanks for your great video! We were not there for closing and arrived for a very few days a bit later. The trades came in quickly once we were there. A couple of them could not come and we had to return to our other home due to our work schedules. Here's hoping that the remainder of our punch list will be completed when we come back......and that The Villages dodges Hurricane Ian!

[@YTDLW064]

Thanks Rusty for sharing. You are so correct about documenting especially about getting the water to drain away from your foundation. Did you go into your attic to check it?

[@conniereese9914]

Im praying for all the people in the path of Hurricane Ian. I told my daughter to head north but shes as stubborn as a mule! I just seen they upgraded it to a cat 2.

[@flybyairplane3528]

RUSTY,HELLO,ARE WATER SOFTNERS,OR RO SYSTEMS ALLOWED,IN VILLAGER ?,I noticed water spots,that’s why I asked,thanks ever so much,,,,,🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@napervillerealestatelifewi5148]

I appreciate the information. For me, I would want the inspection prior to closing as well as just prior to the end of the warranty period. Take care Rusty!!

[@jon19100]

Outstanding video Rusty thank you that is very very helpful

[@johntamulonis4626]

Thanks for sharing! Great job.

[@mandyk729]

Hi! I’m just now watching this but what do you call those blinds that you push up instead of using a cord? Thanks, Mandy

[@DotComMomm]

Please add link to suction cup towel bar.

[@nf2885]

Hi Rusty. Great video. I applaud you for being persistent to get your home repaired properly. I’m surprised that you had to go through quite a time to get your repairs completed. Stay safe as the hurricane makes its way toward Florida.

[@jamesgaul1022]

Homeowner Orientation Buyer's Checklist. Highlight sentence reads, "CHECKLIST "SHOULD" BE COMPLETED WITHIN (7) SEVEN DAYS FROM YOUR CLOSING DATE." It doesn't read that it "has" to be completed within the designated timeframe. Is there another warranty document the specifically mandates the (7) day notification period? There's a significant difference between "should be" and "has to be" in my non-legal opinion? Very good and informative video.

[@Gone_Flying]

Great video! Thank you! Going to closing in a few weeks so this was very helpful!

[@lorirosenthal9055]

Super helpful.

[@donwilliams6712]

D'Angelo is coming out in 3 days. I made the appointment immediately after your video with him. He said he received a lot of calls from your viewers.

[@user-wk3sx6yh7n]

Great information, Rusty. Documentation is the key to protect yourself. 😉 Hope “Ian”doesn’t come to call. Stay safe !

[@tomr.2907]

Great video. Very thought provoking. What was the 2nd hand held meter you showed, where there was a paint problem under the window? Outside, where water was backing up between the neigbor and your sidewalk, is that a shared sidewalk since within 5 feet of the neighbor's wall, or does the neighbor owned the non paved area, and your property includes the concrete sidewalk? Since the neighbor doesn.t see that non paved area, who would landscape it ? Please do more inspections Thanks.

[@Frances-Joy]

If a contractor felt something didn't warrant repair (like the drainage) could you appeal to The Villages?

[@GringoLoco1]

While this is a very informative and helpful video, what caught my eye... Your lightning photo! Are you going to sell prints?

[@fredmiller5137]

Great video

[@jlt1160]

Nice job! Thx!

[@gardenia1953]

Hi Rusty, I love the color of the inside. Did you paint it that color or did the house come painted that color? Do you know the name of the color and brand?

[@YoutubeGold-dc5fd]

wow that's a lot of issues for a new home..that builder should be ashamed of the workers he highers.

[@stevenwilburn235]

Thank you for sharing Rusty!!

[@elaineskurski6555]

Great video. I would not have thought to check into some of these issues. Please stay safe with storms coming.

[@cpecka]

As a Real Estate Broker for 25 years. This is a great reminder to get this done correctly the first time. Again, well done on this video lesson. Persistence is part of mastery.

[@conniebergman7321]

Morning Rusty and thank u for being so informative, not to mention transparent. Again your Village peoples are lucky to have u as a source of information. Be safe in the wake of Hurricane Ira.

[@mark32163]

Rusty, thank you for the great advice! Still hoping to be a Villages resident in the near future.

[@henryjohn972]

Nice job on the video Rusty...Well done...

[@michaelarlen9121]

Rusty, glad they fixed everything. It seemed as though there was a lot of problems?

[@lowridinpacker]

We bought in 2014. We only had 3 things wong after 1 year fixed immediately. However, home inspector missed a problem with the roof shingles not being secure. After 2 years the warranty department went to bat for us and got the roof fixed even though the shingle company denied our claim initially. They also can give you paint colors on your house and lots of other info. I would give them an A+ for sure.

[@bobweber4180]

I moved in 4/1/20 (covid day) and never saw my agent or any chance to fix anything....no builder on punch list. The air conditioner compressor was shot and was more than two weeks no air.

[@ernestkooistra1559]

Thanks!

[@skiprichard3181]

Enjoyed hopefully we r 2 years from building
