Even during our walkthrough there were only a few cosmetic issues, nothing that we couldn't have lived with but as minimal as they were all were taken care of, same with the one year inspection, only minimal cosmetic items that again were taken care of immediately. The windows are better than they used to be with no broken seals to date, the attic has radiant barriers in addition to the insulation, on demand hot water instead of bulky water heater tanks, they are now smart home ready, much more to chose from in regards to flooring than in the past, there is really nothing I can say negative about the home and many of the newer villages south of 44 have gas available which was a plus for us. Don't be afraid of the quality, it's just fine.

I'm not worried at all. I just like to see people back up what they say with specifics. Saying the houses are built to a low quality standard is pretty worthless unless they can back it up.
Over the past week we probably looked at close to 30 houses. I was pleased with what I saw.
