That’s pretty crazy. I wonder what went wrong?
That type of construction is pretty straightforward and hard to screw up.
Leave it to Florida to screw it up.
New built homes being built with a shocking lack of quality control are the rule not the exception here.
There is a plausible theory that new built homes here are designed to fail before a 30 year mortgage can be paid off.
I wouldn't believe it but I see it all the time. Oscar's razor says it's planned obsolescence.
Builders here (and building in the state, I guess) have a scandalous reputation.
They build the homes like matchsticks with things that can't be seen having clear patch up work (once you can look at it) and attract buyers with interior surfaces.
This is their MO.
I filter out "New Construction" every time I look at listings.
