Buyer be ware. Make sure you get all info prior to signing. Was sold a more expensive lot and found out half was an easement. Foundation cracked and leaking. Backyard is a swamp.

They use moldy lumber. They also use cardboard style sheathing. They did not build this house to code. The attic does not have the correct ventilation. They blame all their mistakes on sub contractors.

Poor quality materials and even worse installation crews. The house I purchased has tile floors that were poorly installed and not level. Some tiles have a different finish than the rest of the floor, matte versus gloss. I was told by warranty department that there was nothing they could do it was a manufacturer issue. My las test finding is that there was nothing retaining nut for the drain on the kitchen sink was not secure because the nut doesn’t fit. Safe yourself and your family, stay away from D. R. Horton.

I wanted to share my experience with D.R. Horton to make others aware of deceptive business practices that have led me to decide not to pursue any further business with them. I was misled by John, a sales agent at the Wilmington office, regarding the structure of the discounts and APR. After reviewing the closing cost proposal from Christina, I was shocked to see excessive charges that were never clearly communicated upfront. The entire experience has left me frustrated and disheartened. I caution anyone considering working with D.R. Horton to read the fine print very carefully before entering into any agreements. It's important to understand all the terms before moving forward.

Thank you to the sellsman who lied about the property being rezoned. Said it would never be city zoned and it is. Also terrible painting skills. Also our doors aren't even lined up right. Get people to build your homes that have real skills. No there is no fixing it now, do it right the first time.

I recently purchased a newly constructed home by D.R. Horton in Ocala, FL and am greatly disappointed by the things I did not notice at first. There are already hairline cracks in the garage floor, lanai, and driveway. There's also a crack in the stucco and a piece of it already fell off. I heard a popping sound from the bottom of the bathtub the first time I stepped in it for a shower. The refrigerator is against a wall and pantry door so I have to pull it out in order to fully open the freezer door. Not to mention one of the inside freezer doors had a big crack in it. Last but not least, they used flat paint on the interior walls instead of a satin or eggshell finish which makes it harder to clean. I also feel that the house should have come with dimmer switches instead of having one of their vendors contact me to upgrade it.

DO NOT BUY! The house we purchased was built with multiple severe defects. From day one, we've been dealing with a shower leak that led to a mold infestation. Two years later, this initial defect is still not fixed. We haven't been able to use our master bathroom for over a year and are living with a mold hazard. We reported the issue to the Warranty Director, Robert Draper, but for two years and two months, the mold hazard affecting our health has been neglected without resolution. There's been no progress or hope. DO NOT BUY!
