Pay the subcontractors more and the quality might go up but so will the price of the house. It is a production line here. It seems it is common to get through the bugs in the first year by calling home warranty. Maybe those resales are not such a bad idea. Let the first guy find the bugs ?
We thought at one point that we may like to upgrade to a larger house and garage. But we really don’t want to go through this again so we may just stay where we are.
