Appreciate all updates from our builder. [name removed]. We were in tx even our remote close was smooth as ever. After moving in we found a few cheap shortcuts. Not sure if it’s minto? Or electrician? Lightbulbs were not the new type & we would think they be the ones that do not get hot!!electrical issues are still forthcoming.

My #1 like was that our builder, [name removed], was very easy to work with. He was easy to reach, explained the process clearly, resolved every issue that came up along the way and said from the start to trust him. I trusted [name removed] and he came through for us. Sometimes it wasn’t easy to deal with the setbacks we had during the build, but [name removed] always reassured us that we would receive a quality home at closing, and we did.

Our builder/superintendent [name removed]! He is the most knowledgeable, caring, and considerate person we have ever dealt with. We had three different ones during our first build in phase 3 and a terrible experience but [name removed] definitely gave me confidence back in the building process. Please keep this man around because he’s an asset for your organization. The quality of the home is so much better than our build in phase 3. Thank you!

The active lifestyle options are great. The sense of community is great. We have had issues with the HOA living up to their commitment. In phase 8, when deciding on a villa that backed up to another villa, we were promised that there would be a natural barrier of trees and plants. Unfortunately, after a year of living here, that promise has not yet been met. The plantings are few and far between and not in good health. I can look out my lanai and see directly in my neighbor’s living room. This would not be possible had the right plants and trees been planted. We also have had plants die, with HOA tickets to replace them go unresolved for 60+ days.

The home is beautiful and our builder Kevin was really great to work with even after closing. My only one issue that I feel is important is when we were decided on our home design, on Friday we picked the 3 bedroom 3 bathroom plan; however after the weekend on Monday we wanted to go back to the Den and half bath plan. We had not signed anything, we had not made a deposit yet but were told "no" that no changes to our decision were allowed. It was off putting as now we have a smaller office than desired and third bathroom we don't need. Again, we love the home, the community, the neighbors and are VERY happy.

We did a contract and were very pleasantly surprised to find out about all of the discounts we were eligible for. [name removed] took great care of us during the initial contract phase. Our builder, [name removed], was awesome as well! He was in touch with us almost every week with pics and updates. He was so easy to work with and communicate with during the build; as well as during out walk thrus and after closing. He has been around to check on us as we move in and get settled. CLOSING was pretty awesome too - never had one last 10 minutes - easy when you pay cash. The amazing thing about [name removed]; in my opinion, is every person you come in contact with - homeowners, HOA peeps, restaurant workers, landscape people, and [name removed] employees in the Welcome Center are all HAPPY and helpful and make you want to join this wonderful and exciting community.

It’s all just preferences and opinions on how things could be done differently. I think it is hard on employees to be so reliant on survey scores and I found the purchase process to be a bit of a surprise with the amount of money that needs to be spent on top of base price but in all not a bad experience.

Much better than other builders in this business as far as quality and service, but not quite to the level of custom building quality. Speaking from experience from both sides of construction. Appreciate the minimal stress compared to some of my other builder experiences.

I loved that they kept us in the loop during the build. We lived 5-6 hours away and couldn’t get down here as often as we’d like. The weekly updates, pictures, and videos were wonderful and kept us so excited to get here.

Our Minto support representative has been extremely helpful addressing issues we've had with electric circuit breakers. Technica support from Adams Electric were present within a couple days to correct the problems.

I love my new home. My construction sup (Jen Olesky-White) shared each phase of the build process and my Mastercare rep (Brittany Harvey) has partnered with me on follow-up. I would recommend Minto and specifically LMWS to anyone!

The active lifestyle options are great. The sense of community is great. We have had issues with the HOA living up to their commitment. In phase 8, when deciding on a villa that backed up to another villa, we were promised that there would be a natural barrier of trees and plants. Unfortunately, after a year of living here, that promise has not yet been met. The plantings are few and far between and not in good health. I can look out my lanai and see directly in my neighbor’s living room. This would not be possible had the right plants and trees been planted. We also have had plants die, with HOA tickets to replace them go unresolved for 60+ days.

[name removed] was able to take care of all my concerns on our home. Over all we are very pleased with our home and its size and one floor plan. I would of preferred a little larger living room, but all the other parts of the house met our needs, and this floor plan worked okay for us. Also would like to say that working with [name removed] was a delight, understood our likes and desires.

Sales process was excellent. [name removed] is top notch! PM was good - enjoyed the picture updates weekly. Mastercare rep [name removed] has not been very good to deal with. Takes long time to get an answer, and most of the time they are short, and require follow up.

It’s all just preferences and opinions on how things could be done differently. I think it is hard on employees to be so reliant on survey scores and I found the purchase process to be a bit of a surprise with the amount of money that needs to be spent on top of base price but in all not a bad experience.
