I am disable retiree of the Marine Corp and purchase my brand new house from D.R. Horton and that was the biggest mistake that me and my wife ever made. First of all I purchased my lot in April and they did not start construction on my home till July. They were too busy building houses around us that were not even sold yet. When they started construction we told them that our driveway would be too close to our neighbors and that said no they would be ten feet apart and guess what they are only two feet apart. When we complain and said that we would not buy the house they threaten to sue us for breach of contract. Then yesterday the house next door sold and the contractor supervisor tried to put trees on our line of property which means that I would not be able to back my van out and they called the police to tell them that we would not let them plant the trees and I told them that we could not use our driveway if they did and he said so. THe cops sided with us and we now have our car park on the line so they will have to dig a small hole without hitting our car to plant the trees. Come to find out that people that bought the house did not ask for the trees and the supervisor was just being a jerk because we gave him a low score and he did not get paid. We are now in the process of getting a lawyer to get this matter handle better and to make up for a unreasonable garage and driveway. DO NOT BUY A HOUSE FROM THEM!!! They do crappy finish work and they do not come to fix things within a reasonable time. They also said that we settle on the driveway by giving us mismatched molding that look like junk and a circle driveway that can only fit one car. BUYER BEWARE !!! This dream home has been a nightmare and I wish this problem on no one else.

TERRY

I bought a 5 year old Horton home. WHAT a mistake. Very poor quality. Many hidden mistakes. In 5 years the house is in need of roof and siding repairs. Wiring issues, plumbing issues and more. Makes me sick to see what they get away with. Government should step in amd make home builders acountable. The subcontractors took every short cut they could and no one makes sure they do it right. So many things I have to fix or redue just so I can sell it one day and not feel bad for some buyer. They need better standards. I will NEVER buy another home built by D.R. Horton.
