I own a Turnberry home - it is approx 16 months old and we are extremely unhappy with the builder.
We did not close on time because they refused to accept that we sere seeing things that were not taken care of during our walk throughs, they kept telling us that they would catch all of these items before final walkthrough and we would be happy - well, they didn't and we weren't. Get everything done to your satisfaction BEFORE you close or you will be miserable as their customer service is NON existant after you give them your money.
We have a major underground water leakage in our front yard that they kept blaming on our landscaper...after months and months of going back and forth with them we finally found it to be an improperly installed foundation drain...well, we are STILL trying to get them to come repair. I have gone to the CEO of the company - Rick Bell and have not received an answer - there have been several "after the sale" issues that we have had with our house and they are very non-responsive -the only way to get them to contact you is to contact the BBB and Action 9 news - but we are a LONG way from being happy with this company - look somewhere else - save your sanity!!

Centex also sends a letter to all of their buyers letting them know that their rating affects their property value. Basically telling them that if they don't rate them well, the value of their house will fall.

Guess what, they moved in and bingo had huge flooding coming from the street into their front yard. And what has St.Lawrence told us to do, talk with the developer who did the street work. We met with him and he is passing us back to St. Lawrence. I am sorry but I have never had a situation like this happen with any builder. We are writing our last letter to the St. Lawrence Corp offices, and copying the developer. If we do not get a resolution my buyers are going to the media. This is absurd.

If the developer is Rhein Interests, Bob Rhein is a partial owner of St. Lawrence

We have been building with America's Home Place out of Hickory, nothing but good things so far...It seems like the "other" category is more popular than the builders listed...are we missing some other good builders?

st. lawerence homes and Denmark Construction are the best by far
