Those house were made to past the test time... That's why construction business don't build it in that way now. It is programed obsolescence applied to houses.

[@BureauATF]

I know I'm about to get so much hate by saying this, but... I'm a building inspector in a large city. The amount of rejections I give for people just straight up not giving a crap is ridiculous, and its only been since Covid. If youre looking at a home, new or not, built by a major builder, DO NOT. Theres about a 70% chance your foundation will be on air. That stuff doesnt get past me in my area, but there are inspectors in my city that i know will not even check. It comes back on the builders for just not caring in the slightest, but these homes should be rejected so much more than they are.

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

Thank you so much for your transparency. I’m glad you’re one of the inspectors who are actually ethical. It’s sad how so many simply don’t care.

[@TraciBinIT]

I’ve been in Georgia for the last 30+ years and saw the population increase and the advent of tons of subdivisions that builders introduced into the metropolitan areas. It didn’t take long for DR Horton to develop a terrible reputation for build quality problems that turned out to be a feature instead of an anomaly. This reputation has NOT changed and anyone that buys a DR Horton house is begging for problems and disappointment.

Don't underestimate older builds. Yes, they have their own separate issues but when renovated you'll likely to end up with a better product. I'll pick plank and brick over osb and vinyl any day.

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

I agree 100%, folks should not underestimate older homes.

[@AJourneyOfYourSoul]

Absolutely agree. I just got done renovating a 1962 home and the quality of lumber is off the charts. All hand nailed and one of the best framed houses I have ever seen in my life. Not one piece of framing was rotted. There definitely are some cons when it comes to older homes, but the bones are absolutely solid.

[@Boom38119]

The problem with that is more people are finding this out therefore driving up the price of older homes through the roof. I'm from South Florida and some of our matchbox old homes under 1k sqft are worth more than a new construction 3/2 w/ 2 car garage under 2k sq ft.

As an inspector whenever I would fail inspections ,I would receive a call from my building Official advising me that I'm holding up progress. I have done inspections for D.R Horton, Minto group, Pultie Homes, Lennar, DelWeb, Taylor Morrison, from Homestead Florida, to West Palm Beach, to Port St Lucie, Sarasota, Naples, and all of them use just about the same suppliers and materials. Don't think just because you see hundreds of mofos developing houses that's its being built to perfection. I guarantee that at least 50 percent if not more of the newly built houses foundation shifted some of yall probably got a crack running up your walls now. Don't blame me, I tried to do what's right and I was reassigned every time.

I am stunned to hear this. Wow, it’s crazy how they will go to so many lengths to get over on people. Thank you for your integrity.

[@sheneedsme]

Hate to tell that last lady but as a custom home builder for 40 years my guess is she has foundation problems. DR Horton probably has built that same exact house dozens of times and if those other houses don’t have these exact same issues then the one difference is the soil conditions under the footings. Exterior and interior wall crack that have to be repaired numerous times tells me it’s a settling issue with the foundation.

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

Tons of back mold and several remediation attempts, RE attorneys told her the builder contracts are airtight and draconian - they could force her to close on a moldy house.

There's good craftsmen out there. I'm one of them. These builders won't hire a guy like me because I will take 3 times as long to get a job done and it will cost them 3 times as much at least. They don't like hiring contractors who cut into their fast money. Even if it means sacrificing quality. I did finish Carpentry on new builds and I took 6 days when the other guys took two days. The difference was that my work was perfect and they even used the houses I worked on for model homes. The other guys had all kinds of problems that they just let fly and they ended up letting me go because I wasn't getting the houses done fast enough.

Finally someone is saying it. This is the result of illegal immigrant slave wages these builders are using to maximize profit margins. People need to stop treating illegal immigrants like they are some godsend when it comes to skilled labor. They’re the kings of slapping lipstick on a pig to make their bosses happy and that’s become very apparent with new construction houses. Until builders and lenders are fined for building and financing houses built by illegals, nothing will change.

I encourage anyone with the means, who live in rural-suburban transition areas to buy up the surrounding property around their land, if available, because believe me; if there’s any space, these cheap bulk build McMansion companies are coming to your village, township or city.

In a semi-rural area where your prospective yuppie gentrifier customers are going wake up to the smell of cow shit & the sound of diesel tractors in the morning in their brand new cardboard shoeboxes they overpaid for by atleast 200k. Either do what I did or stay on your city council about barring these companies from polluting your pristine land with mass produced garbage.

I have seen a guy that went from sweeping out houses to getting thrown into a builders position in less than a month and that is not a lie. This guy did care about the quality of his houses and I had to hold his hand for about 3 months to teach him the plumbing side of the build but ya that’s the way it is with Horton! These city and county inspectors should be held liable also that’s should be the final say so in the process. And home inspectors, got to watch out for them also, they are like builders, extinct!

[@csmlouis]

The first few tract houses that these national builders put up in the beginning are usually the best quality (for the elevation/design/true cost). Why? Because that's their A-crew that does it from the blueprints like a competent builder would. The rest of the house are cloned (no kidding, just copied and pasted to the other sites like a template or jig) from those first few houses by the B or C-crew, especially if they cannot read blueprints, cannot square their framing without someone telling them how much to cut, or had no building experience. Whatever you do, DO NOT buy the last few houses that would close out the community, even with massive incentives/pressure to close. It would had been a) the dumping site for the builder, b) being build by the sub-subcontractor, and c) not inspected at all by the city/municipal inspectors. Builder would be in a hurry to transfer all the liabilities, duties, and managements away to owners and HOAs, and the city would be in a hurry to adjust the property price to get the maximum taxable value up.

Unit was probably oversized.

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

What do you mean?

[@JobeStroud]

@@blackrealestatedialogue He is talking about the central air unit. They are usually way to big to cover the poor construction.

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

Thank you!

[@The1JBanks]

@@blackrealestatedialogue I feel like DR Horton is blaming the building envelope when it’s probably the HVAC unit. If the house is sucking in hot air from the attic. Returns are probably not sealed in the ceiling. My first guess as an HVAC contractor.

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

@@The1JBanks Thanks for the clarification!

My home was built in the 1880s by a bunch of uneducated farmers and it is built much better than any modern homes.

[@frankgonzalez1631]

Hold on hold on !! I want people to know that a lot of this falls on the homeowners fall.. instead of getting a license and someone who specializes on the traits and skills.. many homeowners whom want to save thousands of dollars by getting someone less qualify and knowledgeable.. bottom line you get what you pay for.. I'm a general contractor second generation home builder working hundreds of homes through my life.. I seen this through decades over and over..

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

Sounds like DR Horton should get the united healthcare treatment. Says my friend.

[@LaughterMcLuvin]

This why i quit construction, contractors dont care. I just walked off from a builder here because they couldnt stain a deck properly. And when i said something i was the problem and threatened me with lawsuit. They stained everything except the deck then tried to clean screeens, siding, rocks, driveway, and utility units. I laughed and left saying i want no part. They were lazy and didn't tape anything but wanted the payout quick. So they sent 3 people to clean and touch up everything they missed, which was a joke in its own. 2 inch paint brush for 1500 sq ft deck hahahaa. Some building codes call for double cripples because builders shortcut the headers. Money grubbing chumps.

[@blackrealestatedialogue]

That’s so crazy smh. I don’t blame you. It’s always good to hear from someone in the field.
