I liked that the items we discussed were fixed. I disliked on the front end not having a contract stating that they would be fixed before we came to an agreement. Though they were all ultimately addressed, it was initially a slight concern. I disliked dealing with the registration of my products afterwards as no one seemed to know how I should go about it. I had to contact the manufacturer afterwards and send them the closing documents and other document I had to acquire from the installer.

There was items that were addressed prompt within the first month. There are still items that have not been addressed nor has anyone contacted me to schedule a work order to resolve them

I didn't dislike anything. My issue is that some spaces are small and some things that I paid for as an upgrade is standard in other homes at the same price point.

The slow response in getting service items done. There has been some turnover at Alvarez resulting in several balls being dropped.

I love my home, but it has had its issues. The turn around of people at Alvarez is detrimental to the homeowner. I’m finally getting things handled but it’s been a struggle for me. I’ve been here since February. Hopefully issues going forward are handled better.

I was not told there would be an electrical vault put in the front of my flowerbed. The completion date was May 31st and didn’t close until September 15th. The paint on my front door is already peeling. Someone was supposed to do the touch up but hasn’t happened. I do really like the interior.

The way everything was communicated as construction made progress. The video status updates by the project manager. The sales rep team was excellent in how they handled every question along all phases of the sale and after closing

Alvarez employees/managers respectfully express their desire for excellence and are helpful. Responses to questions are sometimes slow; the managers are probably spread too thin. The weekly video updates during construction were encouraging - definitely a plus. Some of the details of the home were finished poorly (possibly rushing through the job) and still need to be corrected: paint mistakes; concrete gaps on porch and at bottom of columns; no paint at the bottom of the columns-looks unfinished.

There have been multiple issues (toilet leaks at base, XXXXX ket falling off while running a bath, doorknobs coming off). I also still have things that were to be fixed at closing that still are unfixed. I have contacted project mangers and they are still unfixed.

There were and still are items to be addressed. I have recently found out that the responsible person has left the company. I am assured though that the items will be addressed in the near future.
