Many builders or project managers, (aptly called) have been with The Villages for many years and it is very hard for me to believe that a person is having a ton of trouble with a home from any of the builders assigned to be project managers. I immediately suspect it is a red herring and it may be a realtor who cannot sell new homes trying to get people to buy used homes so that they have a chance at a sale.

If it is in fact someone with a "friend" who has many problems with a new home, please tell us what they are. A sink stopper missing? Pole lamp without a light? Sod that hasn't taken root yet? Some streaks on the mirrors? Or something else? Both times we closed and had the builder walk though, we gave him our list of minor things such as I just named and he excused himself and stepped away for a moment and made some calls and literally within minutes the subs were there seeing that the minor repairs were made. Within MINUTES. In both new homes.

Please tell us exactly what your friend is complaining about.

Or better yet have your friend join the forum and speak for himself or herself so it's not second hand information.
