The tile work in the master bath isn’t quite up to par. There’s black speck something in part of the grout around the backsplash of the tub which doesn’t look good. The grout work isn’t very good in my opinion. Also the grout around the floor tile in the master bath was dirty and stained when I moved in that I haven’t been able to remove. One of the tiles is higher than it should be. I’m going to have to do touch up paint already on the baseboard in the master bath that was bubbled up and when I cleaned it, paint crumbled off. The faucet on the tub in the master does not seem long enough. Running water into the tub gets water all over the tile behind it because it hits the top part of the tub when it runs. I was very upset before closing when I found the air conditioner had been put on the patio in which I had specifically stated I did not want. But that was remedied before closing and I was very satisfied with that. Part of my concrete on my patio has crumbled off which is not a huge deal, but just doesn’t look so nice or like a brand new house. Same in the garage but I went ahead and epoxied the floor anyway. There is a big sharp nail that was left in my garage wall that sticks out I saw when I did the floor. It was never removed. One of the trees in the front yard has wire sticking up out of the ground that wasn’t buried or cut off. The other tree doesn’t have that. The wooden fencing on the sides of the backyard could really use some correction. There’s boards popping loose, splitting boards, and it was built so high in some places, I have had to put makeshift gardening siding there to keep one of my dogs from going underneath it and getting out. Same with the chain link in the back. Even the gate in the back has a significant gap to one side. Definitely not centered up and my smaller dog could fit through it to get out. The masonry work in some areas looked very crumbly. My builder took care of some of it for me before closing on the pillars on the patio, but there’s many areas where it’s not where I feel it should be for a new home. Even some areas that I pointed out on the front porch near the entry where the brick is cracked. I am satisfied with living here. It may not sound like it above. I was just trying to point out the things I am not impressed with so maybe the next person down the line will have a better experience or those issues won’t be there.

The process was the easiest new home acquisition we’ve ever experienced. Our Ideal Homes rep. [name removed], listened to our needs and helped guide us to meet those needs along with our Realtor [name removed]. The reputation of Ideal Homes was upheld in each step, inspection through move-in.

The HOA Dues were more than what was originally quoted to me. Didn't get a mail box - cluster mail box and didn't get a key from post office until about a month or more after moving in. Didn't know that you had to register your new address with the USPS system. It would have been nice to have been told all of this in advance. Communication for closing was difficult. Finally realtor had to talk to closing agency.
