Thanks for the compliment. I’m not familiar with MI homes. We don’t have them here in Utah. I think the best negotiation tip is to see what they are offering, ask for a little more and walk away if they won’t budge. Let the agent know, if they can make it happen you’re ready to buy and give it a few days. Feel free to reach out after a few days to see if there is anything more they can do. If they say no, they were probably offering the best deal From the beginning. Best of luck.

It varies quite wide across the country with the larger builders, and it also depends on the location. Some place have no quality workers it appears and others do. They hire locally so that is part of the problem. They also want the lowest bid but that don't mean it will be bad, it just depends on the person. Also, some places they will build higher quality because of the area. That is one reason some get so many complaints since so many are probably not built correctly. The main problem is the system that allows national builder to do as they wish, and the area that let them do it. Instead of requiring custom homes they just say yes and give the kickbacks. Normal corporate behavior with nobody trying to stop it.

I purchased my first home in 2009 in southern AZ. It was a DR Horton home. Honestly, I had an incredible experience and they did an amazing job. I’ve worked in quality assurance and can be very OCD with the most minor details. They were patient and accommodating. I’m shocked to hear how the company has been to most customers. Maybe it has to do with timing since I was buying right after the market crash and all the builders in this area were hurting! I also got the house for 15% cheaper than the comps from a year earlier (right before the crash). So maybe my experience was positive because they were hurting for customers.

For the most part, homes are built to code. Only lazy or uneducated city inspectors would allow a house to be built substandard. That being said, some builders construct homes using the finest materials while others use the cheapest thing they can find. The same goes for laborers. That's why it's important to go with a highly rated builder when you're ready to build a house. You should also hire a realtor with new home construction experience to guide you through the process.

Yes. I really like Toll Bros. But You should definitely hire a Realtor first. Before you give them money, make sure you have a solid understanding of what the home is going to cost you. If you change your mind, even if it's just a few days later, you'll be lucky to get your deposits back.

Lennar was awful. They put in defective flooring in our home and gave us the option of a very small buy out or to replace the floors with the same exact floors🤦‍♀️. We had to pay 10k out of pocket to replace them and we should have never had to do that 2 years after buying a brand new home! They also build tiny homes in all of their neighborhoods that end up being mostly rentals.

I bought a new David Weekley home in Timnath, Colorado 2+ years ago. I am happy with it, but am frustrated with annoying corners they cut. The home came with a tankless water heater that is wayyyyy too small for the home. It takes more than 10 minutes to get hot water to the master bedroom and is a colossal waste of water . We are in the midsts of spending thousands to replace. I also needed to replace the cheap kitchen faucet that splashed water all over the granite island countertop. My concrete front step is separating from the house. Our community’s local government had to come down on them and chase them to meet code and build a rail on my front step because my front step has 4+ stairs. You can’t trust David Weekley to do everything right.

Having spent 14 years in the industry MI is the best.

@@javayna2353 That’s a fairly common practice. Often the larger homes don’t fit on homesites were smaller houses are being built. Builders also like to have nicer communities where the homes come standard with a lot more upgrades. Then offer more standard homes in other neighborhoods. I think it’s more so to keep their different products separate, and not people of income levels.

Don’t build, buy the house when they are done and you have looked at the finished product. When you go under contract for a build they just care about closing.

NOT a good idea. You want to know the bones of the house. Concrete, framing, roofing, plumbing, wiring, insulation , and make sure the process is up to code. You want to see as the inspector signs off and make sure they are not cutting corners. A house already built is no guarantee that it’s not shoddy construction.

Taylor Morrison is the worst home builder. They pay for their ratings. Check out their BBB. I am contractor and got sent to Taylor Morrison homes. Brand new homes with roof leaked and the ceiling crumbling down but the home is two years old so it’s out of warranty. The materials looked over 20years old. There’s HUNDREDS of similar stories the same, plumbing, roof, framing, doors frames. They leave home owners having to pay 10’s of thousands to fix problems on their new homes and insurance doesn’t cover it. Taylor Morrison will leave you with the bill and by the time it fails you’ll be out of your warranty.
