This evaluation is based solely on my experience with the original MasterCare representative I was assigned once I closed on my home. Prior to closing, I had a fantastic experience and excellent service from my sales, design, and builder contacts, so having experienced anything less than that after closing has been very disappointing, and I don’t feel a good representation of the [name removed] name. Please understand I am not one to complain, so I do not take this lightly but feel it's important to fill this survey out as honestly as possible. And this is not just a difference in personalities - I know of others who have had this rep that have unfortunately had similar experiences. If anyone would like to visit with me, I'd be happy to discuss. As of December 2025, I requested and was given a different MasterCare rep, and it's been a 100% improvement! I finally feel like someone is listening and actually willing to help.

I think we have a great solid home! The quality is excellent. The response time to fixing any issues that we have had has been very quick and easy. The people here are so helpful. The only items that I think can be improved are small details that would make the house more practical. For example: some of the toilet paper holders are too far from the toilet bowl and there is no place for a hand towel rack in the master bathroom - it is in the toilet area that makes no sense. These are small issues that would add to the comfort of the home. We love living in this home. We love our layout and the quality details of the home. It is a great comfortable home!

The "builder" we had, [name removed] was very responsive and communicated with us through the entire building process as well as our master care rep after the build, [name removed] I was disappointed when I turned in the warranty information for the microwave I was informed by Whirlpool it was several years old. I am very concerned that my AC unit is undersized. Master Bed room is warmer than all of the other areas of the house. We have our year end inspection coming up and I will discuss this with them to determine if they can remedy the problem. Other than the AC situation we are very happy with our home and are glad we moved to LMWS

Dislike - no flexibility in even simple changes to house construction (add insulation to interior wall, additional shelf in shower, etc.). I am having issues with HOA approval for solar panels. HOA has unnecessary insurance requirements that my provider is unwilling to provide. Solar rebates are expiring so I am out about $5000 in solar installation costs because I can't get this resolved.

4.5
Verified Homeowner
Panama City Beach, on Dec 22, 2025

I want to be very clear that we have realistic expectations. However, we are increasingly concerned that several legitimate issues are being dismissed, seemingly because expectations are not aligned. First, our sink is defective. This is not a cosmetic issue. It consistently stains, and this has been an ongoing problem since installation. We are still within our one-year build warranty, yet no corrective action has been taken. We were told it will not be fixed/replaced. Second, we were informed that the water lines in the attic do not meet current code and were told by our representative that compliance “depends on when the house was permitted.” This explanation is confusing and concerning. If the home was permitted three years before we even signed a contract, that is not within our control. Additionally, we were previously told that our home was permitted after we signed our contract, so the information we are receiving is inconsistent. (we signed in 3/2024) We just completed our one-year Mastercare appointment and understand that there has not yet been sufficient time to resolve the items discussed. However, we were told someone would follow up with us in early January. Our one-year warranty expires on January 22, and we want to ensure that all outstanding issues are formally acknowledged and addressed within that timeframe. We are not asking for anything unreasonable—only that documented defects and code-related concerns be resolved appropriately and in accordance with the warranty terms.

I felt that it should’ve been communicated better that you were required to purchase title insurance with their affiliate, even though you were allowed to choose another closing company you would forfeit your incentives. That was never made clear. And we were paying cash and we didn’t want to purchase title insurance, but we felt we were forced to or forfeit our incentives. I feel like that wasn’t transparent in the sales pitch or during the contract stage.

Working with the employees has been perfect. I hesitate to give all 10s because my issues have not been resolved that are not a result of the employee.

Too many upgrades not included given the price of houses. Laminate countertop should never be an option!

The "builder" we had, [name removed] was very responsive and communicated with us through the entire building process as well as our master care rep after the build, [name removed] I was disappointed when I turned in the warranty information for the microwave I was informed by Whirlpool it was several years old. I am very concerned that my AC unit is undersized. Master Bed room is warmer than all of the other areas of the house. We have our year end inspection coming up and I will discuss this with them to determine if they can remedy the problem. Other than the AC situation we are very happy with our home and are glad we moved to LMWS

I want to be very clear that we have realistic expectations. However, we are increasingly concerned that several legitimate issues are being dismissed, seemingly because expectations are not aligned. First, our sink is defective. This is not a cosmetic issue. It consistently stains, and this has been an ongoing problem since installation. We are still within our one-year build warranty, yet no corrective action has been taken. We were told it will not be fixed/replaced. Second, we were informed that the water lines in the attic do not meet current code and were told by our representative that compliance “depends on when the house was permitted.” This explanation is confusing and concerning. If the home was permitted three years before we even signed a contract, that is not within our control. Additionally, we were previously told that our home was permitted after we signed our contract, so the information we are receiving is inconsistent. (we signed in 3/2024) We just completed our one-year Mastercare appointment and understand that there has not yet been sufficient time to resolve the items discussed. However, we were told someone would follow up with us in early January. Our one-year warranty expires on January 22, and we want to ensure that all outstanding issues are formally acknowledged and addressed within that timeframe. We are not asking for anything unreasonable—only that documented defects and code-related concerns be resolved appropriately and in accordance with the warranty terms.
