      Did you hire a realtor or did you build with out one? Just curious because we are about to build with out a realtor and I’m not sure if we made a mistake. We talked with the builder with out knowing once you do that you can’t bring in a realtor. At least that’s what we were told.

      @@peteross4879I am a realtor that specializes in New Construction here in Utah. It's always wise to have a Realtor on your side because builders will push clients around. Realtors have ways of preventing builders from doing things that are questionable & they often know how to get the builder to back off from unfair demands. It's true that many builders won't let you bring a real estate agent after you've visited the model home, but I would still try.

      @@TyWilde thank you for the advise. It’s been a bit stressful finding a realtor because most of the realtors we have talked with seem more interested in selling us into building with lower quality builders they usually do business with. The frustrating part is from the beginning we mentioned the builder we really wanted to build with and gave realtors the opportunity to reach out to the builder before we did but they keep insisting on showing us new subdivisions where they already know the builders. It’s going to be a long road.

Then ask to speak to the broker & ask them if they have an agent in house who has a lot of experience working with homebuilders. Hopefully they have someone in house. After you've met the realtor, if you like them, tell them which builder or builders you'd like to visit & that you're not interested in any of the others. Best of luck & keep me posted.

    You absolutely should hire a home inspector, for both pre drywall and before closing. Its always good to have multiple sets of eyes on things. Our last home WASNT inspected and it turned out the builder never hooked up the dryer vent in the attic, so all the lint sat in the attic for a while before we noticed.

    We just closed on our new home and on the day of closing we saw that our AC unit was faulty. They came to fix it the following week but they never provided us with the ac manual or warranty like other appliances. What’s up with that? So after a year if something is seriously wrong with the ac it’s not on us. And we don’t even know what unit we have. (We are in Florida). I appreciate your help.

    • @TyWilde
      @TyWilde  Рік тому +1

      I'm sorry to hear about it. This is not acceptable. The unit should have a warranty so you could go that route. You might also write the top executives for the builder & explain the situation letting them know what you will do should the issue not be resolved. This would be things like bad reviews everywhere, a sign on your home telling people not to build with the builder, or whatever comes to mind. Best of luck & please let know how it turns out.

      If not, I would say that it's not right that the builder would require us to close on an incomplete home. If the salesperson won't back down ask to speak to his manager. The manager will probably be stern too, but be persistent. If that doesn't work & they force you to close anyway, just make sure that EVERYTHING that hasn't been completed is in writing with the builders signature on it. Maybe ask your friends it anyone knows a Realtor who'd be willing to help you with the appropriate paperwork. Hopefully that helps.

    Question - do construction/project manager get upset or offended if homeowners hire an independent contractor to look over the new home? I plan on doing pre-foundation, pre-drywall and final walkthrough. What is your opinion? U talked about being cordial and my community property manager assures me that the builder has their own quality checks and balances but u know how that can go at times and just unsure with $390K on the line with watching so many horror stories of poor quality/workmanship despite them knowing better passing shoddy work. I read some great reviews on Meritage but again, with rising costs of lumber and steel and shortage, I worry if they will cut corners or not try to correct since those items are costly. With your tip, I plan to jot down significant findings vs minor ones or that we can submit to warranty but if there are any major issues, to address them before closing/settling of new property. Thanks

    • @TyWilde
      @TyWilde  3 роки тому +2

      I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having someone take a second look. Just make sure the builder is aware. The construction manager might be offended, because most likely he or she is proud of the work they do but if you’re cordial about it, it shouldn’t be a problem. That was an excellent question. Please let me know if you have any others.

      This is an EXCELLENT question, thanks for asking. It's fairly common that concrete will crack. So it's highly likely there is nothing wrong or to be worried about. But, if you can fit a quarter in the crack you may want to talk to the builder or have a professional look at it.

They are saying shrubs planted by the fence are an issue now. The neighbors fence is one foot over on our property line. I am worried about losing the home, we got in when rates and prices were low. Now there are no homes for the same price, only $40K plus what we are supposed to pay. I’m afraid they’ll terminate the contract if we don’t close and we won’t get a house.

I wanted to schedule the home inspection before my orientation/ blue tape meeting several days, but the builder told me the house will not be completed at that time, so they didn't agree. They let me schedule the home inspection just 3 days before the closing day. They made me feel like I should not trust them. The builder is Pulte. I don't mind to hire inspectors two time, before and after the house completion.

    Often times these builders are building multiple homes at a time and rushing through everything to get it done, that's when mistakes happen. Do it right the first time.

    I was so shocked when I saw the structure of my home being built. My expectations was high until i saw the workmanship of KB. I don't get it. You pay them a lot of money, and in return you should get for what you paid for. Instead, there work are sloppy all around. How in the world they can do this to their customer?

      It's interesting. In one location, a builder will do a great job & in another the same builder might be sloppy. It often boils down to the leadership in that specific area. As far as national builders go, KB has a better reputation than most, but this is the reason I tell people to look at the on line reviews. You know what the best part is though? In this market, if you're not happy with your home, you can just sell it & take all that equity with you, building with a different builder. This time you'll be a little wiser. Where did you build your home?

Hopefully things will go well and I’ve talked to everybody in the neighborhood and they’re not happy which makes me want to walk away

      I live in a home built by KB for 20 years now getting ready to sell and buy a brand new house which I’m hesitant about because I’m seeing shotty work. My home for KB was built and I say perfectly, nobody Expects a perfect home but I can at least say that they did their work above and beyond as far as this house is concerned, the only reason I’m selling is because I would like my bedroom on the first floor the stairs are killing me. Every builder has their issues but when the prices of houses are rising incredibly too much I believe the builder should take the time to do the right thing

      MARK ANTHONY WILLIAMS Thank you so much for your opinion. I certainly don’t expect everyone to agree with me on anything, really. But, first of all, you’re comparing apples to oranges. Cars are manufactured 100% in a warehouse whereas homes are built from natural products. Natural products such as the wood used to frame the home have imperfections by nature. 2x4’s For example warp, crack, and the knots in the wood will give areas of weakness. A lot of times 2x4’s warp after they are installed and after the sheet rock has been affixed. This will cause nails to pop and walls to bend and unfortunately, this can happen One week after installation, One month after installation or more than a year later. I could go on and on with examples, but I’ve been through some pretty expensive homes that have had multiple imperfections. When it comes to building a home, you can expect beautiful, you can expect amazing or wonderful, but you will never find perfection. Thanks for watching my video and for taking a moment to comment. I really appreciate you. Have a great day.

      I just replied to another viewer with an indepth explanation & wanted to do the same for you. So, here you go... I'm going to take some time and answer you thoroughly because I care about YOU and EVERYONE that watches my videos. Often buyers have an unrealistic expectation of what the home should look like. They feel like the home should be perfect, but it's simply not possible. Because homebuilders are working with natural products like wood & stone, sometimes things just wont match up. Obviously a severely warped wall is not acceptable, but you'll never find a home with perfectly straight flat walls. Even after the 2x4 wall is framed, sheetrocked & painted, the studs will continue to twist, warp & bend. This causes the wall to move a little, it' just happens & all of the time. Trim is another prime example. It's not always going to be 100% perfectly snug against the floor or when it meets the other piece of trim. There could be a small gap. Which can be cause by a lot of different factors. So, there becomes what is considered an industry standard or acceptable imperfections. You will not find a perfect home anywhere in the world. I tell people to look closely at the builders model home. You will see trim that doesn't match perfectly. Walls with slight warping & things of that nature. You shouldn't expect your home to be any different than the model home. Here's my best advice to anyone who's actually taken the time to read my novel here. Research the home builder. If they have a good rating, you should get a beautiful home. Thanks to all of you for watching & for your comments.

    This makes no sense to me if I’m purchasing a home and spending a lot of money. One of the most expensive purchases. I want everything fixed and move in ready for me. I’m not going to wait and have them fix it under warranty later. It needs to be done prior to me moving in or they shouldn’t get their money. I’m purchasing this home it’s not being given to me so therefore just as bless as I would be to be moving into a home they should feel they are bless to have a home buyer. Without buyers there would be no company.

    • @TyWilde
      @TyWilde  4 роки тому +11

      I think you misunderstood something in this video. Home builders offer warranties because every single home built will have issues AFTER you move in. Maybe the faucet had a faulty part that causes a leak 3 months after you close on the home. Maybe when the house settles, there are a few nail pops. Maybe one of the installers made a mistake & it's not realize until after you move in. These are just a few examples of how a warranty would be used.
      To clarify, most builders will not allow you to close on the home until all items are complete. The warranty is a gift to each person that buys a home from the home builder as a way for the builder to make up for any items that may arise after you move in. Do you understand what I'm saying? BTW, thanks for watching my video & for your comment.

      @@TyWilde My main concern would be that I've heard tons of horror stories where people tried to make warranty claims only to be ignore until the warranty ran out and then told that the warranty was expired so they were out of luck. By asking for those type of things to be done before closing I still have leverage to the tune of several hundred thousand dollars, but once the closing paperwork is signed the builder has their money and little to no motivation to fix things especially when they need to finish the next house to keep the money rolling in put food on their and their employee's tables.
      I do get things wont be perfect, but if you're building a sub division how much work does it actually take to go back to a neighboring house and screw in/patch the couple of exposed screws in the garage? Even this week I hired painters as we're getting ready to sell our house and they missed a couple of screws. Before they get paid I do a final walk through and noticed that they missed a couple nails and screws and got some paint on the ceiling fan. I let them know about it and asked them to fix it and they came back and fixed it without complaining. It took him all of 5 minutes to pull the nails and put on some spackle. He left for the majority of the day and then came back at the end of his work day on another job, took 5 minutes to sanded & paint the 4 small patches he did that morning and he had a happy customer. 10 minutes plus drive time and he had a happy customer who would happily recommend them to anyone in the area. That seems like an incredibly small price to pay for a happy customer and we're only talking about a ~$3,000 job not a $300,000+ job. Now if I'm asking them to come back every week and fix things sure that's unreasonable, but if I find a few things in our walk through please just fix them vs telling me it's unrealistic to expect people to finish the job that they were hired to do.

There's no such thing as a perfect person & certainly no such thing as a perfect home. Perfection is impossible when you're dealing with natural products like wood, stone & etc. Often wood warps after framing is done & sheet rock is installed. This causes nail & screw head to pop out. This is just one example of dozens if not hundreds of things that can go wrong. Thanks for watching & for sharing your thoughts.
