Why would you purchase a home from DR Horton?

As the wind howls through the valley and the 60mph winds blow through the future DR Horton Bellaria development here in the desert, it’s days like these you have to behave as a tortoise and stay in yer bunker reading reviews about DR Horton on the internet. Wow is all I can say after reading the scathing reviews  at the Consumer Affairs site. Click Here to see for yourselves.

Well it comes as no surprise, you see DR Horton is a huge company. They build homes all over the United States. They are listed on the Stock Market and their shares trade there and investors purchase these shares. You see when you have investors to answer to, it comes down to only one thing, Bottom Line. The Board of Directors, President etc, has to get on the phone every so often and tell the investors what they are doing to increase the value of their shares. I’d imagine that at some point cutting corners and using lower grade material would not be out of the question in order to increase profit margin. What do you think?

Watch very carefully when they build these homes. Do you see 30 year roofing material going on the roof, nice thick black heavy felt black material, or the cheap plastic junk they use as underlayment which according to a friend in the roofing business loves because he says and I quote “It’s job security for me!”.

What else have they cut corners on, are the streets narrower than usual, what about the size of the lots?

It comes as no surprise that the Final Map submitted to the City Engineers as of March 28th, 2016 has been DENIED again in the flood/drainage section. Why? What corners are they cutting now?

As they say, BUYER BEWARE!
