The experience was great until the walk through. The sales and design experience was outstanding.

We’re pleased this homeowner had such a positive experience with our sales and design process. At closing, there were a few outstanding items (x in total) most were resolved within 7–10 days. The bathroom tile concern was addressed in less than 30 days, and two cabinet parts remain on backorder. We are also continuing to work with the homeowner on their patio pavers, providing multiple pallets of options to help resolve their concerns.
We know the final stages of construction and closing are just as important, and sometimes challenges do arise. While it’s not uncommon for minor items to remain after closing, we are committed to resolving them within the timelines outlined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, and in this case, we met those commitments. We are disappointed the purchaser is not fully satisfied with the final result, but we remain committed to resolving their concerns to the best of our ability. Our priority is always to ensure our homeowners feel supported and confident in their new home.

The quality of the workmanship for the finishes is dismal. [name removed] should be fired for presenting our home to us in the condition it was in.

In hind sight, I would have requested to see a completed home that is not the model. When touring the model, all of the finishes are perfect setting the quality expectation. Our finished product was far from perfect and frankly, dissappointing. The lack of care was apparant for the following reasons: 1. Blinds package we ordered was forgotten and not installed 2. Dimmer switches ordered were not installed. 3. Plumbers ruined our upgraded primary bathroom floor. Result - demo and reinstall a new floor after closing. 4. A couple of cabinets need to be replaced because of scratches 5. Just about every appliance has a scratch or dent. 6. We spent $15K on the decking around our pool, the installers thought it was exceptable to use damged tiles and made no cuts to correct imperfect edges causing inconsistent gaps throughout the patio. Honestly, it looks like a DIY project rather than a professional installed it. 7. The overal painting of the house was sloppy. There is paint drops on every surface in the house. Honestly, I do a better job painting then the people Akel hires to do the job. 8. Akel completely rushed the finishes in order to close by the end of July. I can only conlcude that they are willing to compromise quality to increase the bottom line. Who ever is responsible for quality control of the finishes should be fired at [name removed] [name removed].
