Contractor built houses do not have the same interior quality unless you are choosing upgrades. That would be true here and up north because I have a house here and in NJ. I also built a very high quality custom home and no contractor can measure up to that. We have been In our house here for over six years and, although I would have put in better quality cabinets and appliances, I can live with what came with the house until they need to be replaced. Stucco seems to be tighter than a vinyl sided so we decided that stucco was for us. My house is not cracked and may need to be painted at some point but every house needs maintenance. If you do not want that there is always the lofts where you get the honor of renting a detached garage for an additional $250 a month.
