We are currently under contract with Grand Homes. You speak truth to the experiences we are having/have had. However, I do recall having almost two weeks between the time we signed our contract and having to visit the design studio. One thing I would recommend with any home is to visit the site often! We currently live over in Arlington, but our home is being built in Rowlett. We go over almost every weekend to check on the progress. I can tell you; this has paid dividends for getting our custom design just the way we want it. I caught them in a few major and minor mistakes that could have added lots of extra costs for them and time for us. I won't get into any of the details here, but I do recommend making sure you understand what you are getting and how to read your blueprints. Being that I'm a fairly handy guy, I was able to spot and bring to the attention of the build coordinator issues that would bother me down the road. If anyone would like a detailed description of our homebuilding experience with Grand Homes, please feel free to look at my LinkedIn account where I've been posting weekly updates on the development process. We are very much looking forward to our blue tape day where we look for flaws in the construction process. This is the once chance you get to make things right, before they take your money and run! www.linkedin.com/in/michael-flanagan-7042b519/recent-activity/all/ Cheers,

Highland here in Georgetown uses this cheap sheathing and yet, best homebuilder ever. Check out Broken Oak if you dont believe me.

Can anyone provide insight on these builders/communities? They are Normandy Homes-Hazelwood Community, Landon Home-Lexington Community, and Shaddock Homes-Grove Community. Who is the better builder?

Thank you for sharing these important information with us.

You’re the best teacher…great subject matter every time! ❤ This is one of those videos you save, share and take notes! 👍

New subscriber in Ohio!😊

Your content is filled with precious gems of information. Thank you kindly for sharing and please keep up the great work.

Such valuable insight, thank you Wendy.

I recently visited Normandy's Hazelwood and village communities in Frisco, TX. It looks like they are no longer using the zip system for sheathing. They are using Dryline sheathing now.

Sheath with 7/16 in. plywood if you want a well built home. This paper crap is just that.

Thank you so much for explaining the contract!

Tents are looking better all the time - why bother to have a 500 K disposable money pit.

Great Video, Thank You. Any comments on Mattamy Homes?

I can understand being upset if something didn’t go as expected, but I’ve had multiple excellent experiences with William Ryan Homes and feel it’s worth sharing another perspective. In my experience, they’ve been incredibly thorough, treated every step of the process with integrity, and genuinely cared about their clients. They go above and beyond to ensure satisfaction and deliver quality homes. I’m curious why you’re putting so much effort into blasting the company after just one experience. Every builder can have occasional challenges, but I’ve found William Ryan to be committed to resolving issues and standing by their work. It’s important to give credit where it’s due, especially when they consistently do right by so many homeowners

Wow. This is such a negative way to share a single bad experience. I mean you’re talking one person out of hundreds of thousands of others who have had nothing but the best experiences. This is very misleading and I can’t see what possible positive outcomes are expected here? More leads or more referrals because you share negative feedback? Things like this cannot only hurt the builder, but the 1000s of people with families they feed and all based on one persons perspective on how an experience went. I would caution all viewers there’s always 2 sides to a story and not only have I had the most AMAZING experiences with William Ryan Homes, so have all my clients and my agents’ clients. I have been in this business 25 years, and have my own real estate team. William Ryan is incredible guys. This is wildly gross.

Where would Trophy Signature homes rank here?

Historically rates have been 5%-6% but we were spoiled over the past several years. New construction high prices keeping the market trends higher but builders can offer incentives to lower payments. Market may be stuck for awhile, especially if more tariffs go into effect increasing the cost of materials. Love your content ❤️

Thank you for your great information!! Hoping to work with you two soon!! Do Work!!

can you recommend a relator in Houston?

Always Great info from you guys Good job on the cup Dale 🤠

My property tax on my house in Texas was $655. Per month. My tax on my house in Idaho is $98. per month. I left Texas where nobody would even paint their houses because the property taxes would be reassessed. Texas is a joke!

Rule #1 - NEVER buy a DR Horror-ton house Rule #2 - See rule #1

Dead on. As a Pulte customer, I advise you not to buy from them. Your mileage may vary, but from my experience, they only want to fix the cheapest things they can and try to get out of as much as they can at the 1-year warranty review. Code-wise as well. I found out with my wiring, and they act like they are proud of it that they went the cheap route as well, per their rep and follow-up rep. (putting as many outlets on one circuit that blows a fuse on a NEW HOME once or twice a week)

That email quoting OSB at $7 a sheet was from 2010. Prices have gone up to 5-fold.

What’s your take on Tradition home?

Thank you 🙏 for sharing this valuable information.

Thank you kindly for sharing this information. I’m a Marine Corps Veteran in Virginia Beach looking to relocate to Texas. Your channel will definitely get more subscribers with your great 👍 videos! ❤

Did you see who the author of that article was ? Ox Engineering, the maker of the card board junk

Hi, I am relocating to the Dallas area, and cannot complete your site's questionnaire because I live overseas. Can you send me an email?

Great video!

I'm considering or looking at Beazer homes. Any information you can share about builder would be welcomed. Thanks !!

How about Tri Pointe?

Bloomfield homes warranty is 6 years for structural

Thanks for your honest review

I bought in more mature Highland Village/Flower Mound area to avoid hoa and pid/mud

Thank you for the review about William Ryan Homes. I haven't found much information about the builder before construction. Pretty much the same after I moved in. Their design center and its website - honestly, I didn't like it. There were many options in website but wasn't really easy to compare each option. There were options present in website which were no longer available to choose so we had to make changes at the meeting. We were considering for another appointment, but we were told we will have to pay extra for that. I guess I should be happy as my house wasn't as bad as your client's one. But honestly details on mine weren't best either.

Would you recommend them at Aster Park, prosper?

Amazing video. Underrated. Thank you very much ❤

I’m looking for a review about Normandy Homes. Hope to see your videos soon. 😊

Great video. When will the video reviewing all the builders be released?

You always have such good information. You are doing a great service for a lot of people 😊

what are your thoughts on William Ryan Homes offering literally the best energy efficiency features? if you go to their website, WHY WILLIAM RYAN HOMES, and select DFW, you can see top features like spray foam, 2x6, so many. not even the highend luxury builders use these. their HERS is rated 49 from website, no one else in DFW is in 40s

I am thinking about moving to Texas. Great information. It gives me allot to think about with TX builders.

Property tax on a basis other than actual cost is being taxed on unrealized gain.

Hi What is the price of a large house in a good area with a pool in Dallas?

Great Video. Yes, I agree with your views. People are moving from all over the country to Prosper and Celina and it does not look anything like what it looked a year or two ago. Every month it looks different some new community or retail shows up and the greenery is all gone. I have seen them cut all the trees and build the NTTA/ DNT foundation. a year and half ago when we moved there, I would see and hear the owls and eagles fly and make those screaming noises in the afternoons and nights. I would hear the birds chirping in the morning. Now all that is gone, I do not see or hear them anymore, all I hear is traffic, traffic, traffic, it is sad, I moved to these suburbs thinking I would enjoy the nature and suburbs, hmmmmm but it is not like that anymore just in a year and half. Thinking of moving out of Celina, but do not know where else to go in and around Dallas..............

Success❤

If you are financing a home the appraisal will determine what the purchase price will be an appraiser won’t say a home is worth 80k over based off the list price. Appraisers only put value on homes by what recently sold in that area. Also the mortgage company won’t finance anything over the appraised value. If you pay over the appraised value in cash out of pocket knowing the house isn’t worth it , then that will be a decision you and your family have to make if you decide to over pay for a home you love. Also what people don’t understand is the sellers and buyers create the value in a neighborhood. Example: if a house sell for 500k this month and then the next month 2 or 3 similar homes sell for 400k. Well that could very well decreased the value of the 500k home or if they sold 600k it can then possibly increase the value of the 500k home.

Something to consider, if the price of the home is overpriced, the appraisal will come in to play and will dislodge the overpriced listing.

Search how much homes in the area sold at auction. That is one of the few determinants of how much a house is worth. You'll notice how most houses are actually only worth less than a tenth of what they're pricing the houses at.
