if you were to have a home built, which builder would you go with & why? which would you steer cear of & why? i'm exploring some options before our move to the area--we're leaning towards living in lexington, but will be looking in cola, too.
While you may not get a custom-built home in that price range, you will be ecstatic to see what you can find in the Columbia area for $150,000. Happy hunting.
You'll have choices. Mungo, Great Southern, Shumaker, Colony come to mind but there are many choices. Beazer left Columbia and have great deals on their specs right now.
Had a Great Southern home, great floor planes and lot of sq ft for the price!
Hi! I just posted on another thread about Lake Carolina and was asking about the quality of GS Homes. I notice that they have a lot of communities in the Columbia/Lexington area and are now offering reduced priced on some new construction. If I could find a new home in a nice area for under $150,000, I would be a very happy camper.
How long did you live in your house? I know there are sometimes problems with new homes, so the most important thing to me is customer service. My sister had a custom home built for over $500K in VA and had a leaky roof and other nightmares, so it's not always the price range but the integrity of the builder and his supervisors. I don't expect a palace for $130-$150 but a small, comfortable house in which I can be happy for many years to come.
