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 ?
Reading his post it does not appear that any of the problems were related to the actual construction of the home but it’s appliances, sprinklers and heat pumps etc. all of which were corrected, a fact not pointed out in the original “ vent “.
