Never buy new construction
Genuinely curious as to why?
@@michytalk1202 Quality has gone to crap, make sure you get an independent inspection if you do, check out videos on "why not to buy new construction" you'll see tons of examples. I think it's the culture honestly, you see it in the RV industry, and all building, it's far more pervasive this utter disregard for quality, and not even trying to hide it, People putting together these houses as fast and cheap as possible, thin veneer on lazy s*** quality.
Im sorry brother but new construction is the ONLY real solution to inflated housing prices
I just walked through a few lennar homes just framed/roofed. Not impressed. No sheathing, cardboard over studs. Presumably will get a siding, not brick. Interior walls framed 20" on center not 16. Poor workmanship, studs cut short, nails over shot or missed completely. Odd floor plsms-not unique or trendy just wierd. Cheap materials-fiberass tub/shower surrounds instead of tile
Thank you for posting this informative video👍😊
Having lived in multiple states, retiring in SC is a dream. As for politics and religion - who cares. TURN OFF cable news (noise) and you will be a happy camper. People FROM SC are very nice - its WE outsiders who are less friendly and always in a hurry bevause we are so use to being in the rat-race. Slow down, smile and enjoy beautiful South Carolina. NO KIDDING.
Love it, glad you enjoy living in South Carolina! Thanks for sharing your point of view ☺️
I am a big fan of lennar, Last week I have been few new communities, and they started building 8ft ceiling homes, and the quality seems different as compared lo last year one! They are moving towards affordable but felt they are tending too dr hort*** qualities. Everywhere there is a cost cut , in terms of windows, ceiling , even water hose placements etc… ( not applicable to expensive communities)
I don’t know about other places but in Texas the Lennar layouts are hilarious. The master bed toilet is a burrow and walking into home looks pretty much like caverns. You know a dumbhead build such homes
@reflectionstillz This is a thing with Lennar, I think. I have a relative who lives in one of their 55+ communities and her wheelchair cannot get her to the toilet! She had to remodel. Also, her shower is behind the bathroom door. They don't claim to be hc accessible, but in bathrooms, they are even *less* accessible than the average house.
@charlestonliving which are the premium builders in central FL?
Charleston my favorite new york over crowded those Big cities overrated everyone so anxious Charleston got the country life and the city life 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great video. Great presentation. Thank you!
My pleasure, Mary Beth! Let me know if I can help 😊 - Kristyn
I live next to a Lennar community in Babcock Ranch Fl. They only have gutters on the front side of the homes. They use fiber in their concrete, not wire or rebar. There is no lip for the wall block so water intrusion is possible. Plus no lip for the garage door, so water can enter under a door.
By "lip," do you mean a drip edge/ flashing?
@@DMB-pe8hk The block wall in a Lennar home sits on the flat slab. My Pulte home slab has a 1 inch dip the last 8 inches if the slab so the block sits is below the slab .This keeps water from migrating under the block into the home. The garage door has a similar dip so that when the door is closed the bottom is below the garage floor. It keeps water from being blown under the door.
Interesting. The Lennar basements here are poured, not block. What year were those built?
@@MB-zp5kp I'm in southwest Florida (Babcock Ranch), so, everything is built from block. It is for termites and hurricanes. A new 3 million dollar home near me is all block. We don't have basements because of the high water table. During hurricane IAN (cat 4)our community took a direct hit and there was no structural damage to any homes. Just a few shingles lost.
@@solardiver7 Makes sense. We have mostly homes on basements here, so poured is better for that, as blocks develop more water intrusion when underground and subject to pressure.
I remember when Lennar first emerged as a bargain or discount builder. While I’m not sure if their marketing was meant to give the impression they were a cheap builder using cheap materials for price-sensitive buyers, their "Everything's Included" slogan certainly did. This seemed to hurt their reputation somewhat in the late '90s and early 2000s. However, they've managed to elevate their profile since then. I haven't heard an "Everything's Included at Lennar" radio commercial in decades, which is a good sign for them.
In our area, Lennar homes are very expensive and run higher than competitors for similar size and features. To me, the "everything's included" slogan is a plus, because with their luxury profile here, it's good to know we don't have to add on to the already somewhat hefty price.
Be careful with your inspections. I bought a lennar house in Huntsville AL and im having to move into a hotel for a week fir them to fix numerous flooring and drywall issues. Luckily they are making the warranty repairs without alot of pushback.
Yes, things like that happen! It’s good to have a back up plan in case the home doesn’t close on time. Good thing they’re making the warranty repairs
Just to add a couple things: T-Mobile is the only cell service that works in the area There are food truck Wednesdays every week Seasonal farmers market Seasonal festivals with jump houses/petting zoo, music etc Holiday celebrations such as egg hunt and fireworks on the 4th Majority of neighbors are awesome lol
Nice, thanks for sharing Barbie! Sounds like a great community. How long have you lived in Summers Corner?
So this is not "Horizons" ? This is not age restricted?
Summers corner has different subsections. The ones they are currently building in are Heron’s Walk, Sweetgrass, and Horizons (which is a 55+ community)
I moved to charleston from virginia right after undergrad back in 2005. I then moved to orlando and then back to columbia sc. charleston has changed drastically in just 20 years. i dont know how anyone that lives there can afford it and really why you would want to live there now.
You are entitled to your opinion. I lived in Columbia for 4 years, and came back to Charleston. 🤷🏻♀️
I just watched this, Kristyn. You did a great job. You are a pro at this. I will keep you in mind when I am ready to buy.
