Bought a DR. Horton home and was appalled at the stuff you didn’t get that should have been standard like towel racks, toilet tissue holders etc… Then you get cabinets with dummy drawers and only two you can use and they are small. It was heartbreaking the money you spend on purchasing the home then the money you have to spend to make it functional for everyday living. I had more and much better amenities in the apartment I was renting. Don’t buy unless you got money to invest and don’t trust your realtor to be your eyes and ears…

I bought a D.R. Horton home in 2020. In 2023 that underground waterline malfunctioned. Due to the extent of how much water I was losing I had plumber come out too access and repair the issue. I was informed that a shark bite fitting not certified for underground use was the cause. When I informed D.R. Horton, the told me screw me because they weren't allowed to access the issue. Do NOT BUY a home from this company as they'll stand behind a technicality to keep from doing what's right. It's not like I dug up the ground and put the illegal fitting on the waterline. Please find a more ethical and quality builder for your home.

Horrible builds, and the representatives that speak for Dr. Horton are just as bad as the quality of the homes. Their garbage, low intelligent, subpar builds are backed by a phrase we hear all too often now; "Each house is unique and built by someone by hand". That doesn't mean it has to be cheap and look like a blind person put all the pieces together. I would never recommend DR. Horton homes to another person ever in my lifetime.

Please do not buy Dr.Horton home, we brought house on Richmond Texas, we had a horrible experience. This builders using cheap quality materials less than a year we have multiple cracks in our home and they fix it because under our warranty period after that again our rooms has cracks m. You are spending more than $350,000 and no value for this houses. Please stay away from them and look for the another builder.

DR Horton is truly awful. From the build process quality through the warranty process which is non-existent once you've move in. Some specific examples such as leaky roofs, insufficient structure support, plumbing leaks, floors warping, severe drainage issues and other items to lack of responsibility and communication for fixing their own idiotic widget making approach to home building. If you're thinking about a DR Horton home, look up reviews and better yet, look up litigation cases against the builder. If you look at the comments and history of DR Horton, you'll see that the majority of people are in alignment on just how bad DR Horton truly is. Don't make the mistake of thinking you'll be the one who won't have issues or that you'll prevent them from happening.

URGENT! Do NOT close no matter what until you are certain on your final walkthrough that the home is “perfect” as it should be considering you are likely paying possibly a half million or more for your home. I bought In Aventura in Gulf Shores. Make sure you are certain to hire a home inspector that knows to thoroughly check out every square inch and you check it out too. Concentrate on plumbing, electrical, and all finish work. Also concentrate on the foundation, including it is uneven. Otherwise they will not stand behind their work and you will have to fix everything on your own. This is a warning that I ignored from other reviews… I beg you, for your sake, don’t ignore what I’m telling you. Do not trust them. I know you need to move in, but rent a hotel until everything is perfect or you will be very sorry and upset. Otherwise you are destined for heartache and additional expense.

I purchased a home in Rocky Mount, NC off of Old Spring Hope Rd. I have been in my home a year and a half. The builders were supposed to come back in a year to fix any concerns and nail pops. No one came back after my year was up. The house was rushed being built therefore they didn't give the house time to settle so the nail pops in the wall wouldn't occur. The bathroom fixtures from the walls (tissue holder towel holder is coming out of the wall. Then my closets have no lights in them, but you have to switches in everyone room. The only closet that has a lot is the master bedroom. My doorknobs are coming off left to right the stair rail has even been reported because it came out of the wall. Another builder informed me that it wasn't placed in the wall right to begin with. The HOA is terrible when it comes to being professional. I have had complaints about my dogs being on a leash and me violating due to them not being leashed up in the perimeter of the yard. So therefore, I am even limited when it comes to where the dogs are leashed in my own yard remind you they are small house dogs. I would not advise anyone to purchase a home from D.R. Horton I am currently working on saving for my second home without the HOA being involved. Worst decision you can ever make to purchase a home with a HOA that tells you what to do in your own yard and you are still responsible for cutting your own grass. What am I paying you for? To tell me what to do own a house I'm paying on that I own. Worst mistake ever I should have waited patiently instead of taking this route to become a house owner. Will be selling within the next couple of years.

Our experience with D.R. Horton started off well we thought we had found our dream home in Ridgedale Heights in Johnston IA, we were excited to be able to move into a brand new beautiful home however, on our second walkthrough we noticed a concerning amount of imperfections within the finish of the house... like the cabinets in the kitchen were damaged they had scratches all over them and they even attempted to paint over some of the damage, however, you could see the uneven paint color and the backsplash was improperly placed it was uneven and the grout was coming off the counters weren't aligned with the wall this was just the kitchen in the upstairs bedrooms all the carpet was cut short of the base and you could easily see the gap between the base and the carpet the tiles in the bathroom and laundry room was crooked and the door frames were too short from the floor so you could see under the doors they were also uneven and mostly all the doors had some sort of damage scratches, bumps, etc. even the front door wouldnt properly close the most important door in the house didnt even work properly. We wanted to back out from purchasing the home as we did not feel comfortable purchasing it we talked to the D.R. Horton representative to cancel the contract by this point we had already given them a 5,000 dollar check for them to finish the basement after bringing up these issues we were told we had to talk with contractors to walk with them throughout the home and explain to them why we were backing out we were also told that after we met with these contractors that we would have a 5,000 dollar check refunded they did NOT start any work on the basement so our money was still in their hands once we had explained to the contractor's everything they AGREED with us that the house was IMPROPERLY FINISHED and STILL REFUSED TO REFUND OUR 5,000 dollars we felt like they were obligating us to buy a 400,000 dollar home with an awful finish they told us everything we had an issue with was fixable however if the visible finish is horrific imagine the inside of these homes its not something a person buying a brand new home should have to deal with thats the entire point of buying a new home not having to deal with any maintenece within the house and why as a buyer should I have to tell them how to properly finish a brand new home. It was very stressful having to restart the buying home process after being absolutely robbed of 5,000 dollars of our hard-earned money.
