Our company understands the importance of adhering to a time line, maintaining a budget, paying attention to detail, and customizing each building plan to uniquely fit its owner's needs.

A much needed update to the last. We are three weeks out from closing and there has been a lot of…read moreprogress. Still several outstanding jobs to complete due to mis-ordering of product or supply shortages. Our experience with Theresa the design consultant has improved beginning with a discrepancy with the master bath wall tile. It was understood that the model was full of "custom" features that the previous builder (Frontdoor) offered that Stanley Martin did not. However, not all of those non-options were disclosed. The master bath in the model had the entire wall behind the tub/shower tiled even though the standard was to only tile the shower stall, not to the ceiling. We didn't discover that until the tile was installed. Theresa was quick to reply and explain but instead of the predicted negative answer, she was able to offer us two options to custom tile. We ended up not choosing to tile because of the added expense and the selected tile not giving the same "look" due to its size but it was the time and consideration that made the difference. It is very important as a homebuyer to have control and make the choice. The landscaping was a big surprise and definitely a positive one. Bushes, trees, and grasses were planted around the entire house and garage. The sod came in looking amazing and there are no visible seams. A lot of planning was put in and it shows. The neighborhood marina is really coming along nicely and should be completed sometime next year. The ramp is finished and several slips are already complete. No information yet on availability or pricing for slip rental. Some pro tips: - Take a slow walk through video pre-drywall of every room. After drywall, double check every switch and receptacle. We've already noticed a missing switch for a ceiling fan that wasn't run, a volume knob and light switch that wasn't cut out, and a missing foyer light. - If you order the square sinks they will delete the drawers in the smaller vanities. This applies to the cultured marble or quartz tops. If you order a round bowl in either material, you keep the drawers. -Do not assume anything when walking a model home. Question every single thing and compare to the floorplan you choose. Look at all the windows, walls, fixtures, finishes. If there isn't a model or viewable home that matches then verify these things. - Communicate often with the construction manager. Garrett has been the best part of this experience and he truly embraces the values of Stanley Martin. His understanding and patience has made the home building process fun and enjoyable. There are two looming issues that haven't yet been resolved. The first is one mentioned in the last update - resolution of the site plan change after contract. I have asked the builder for a concession towards closing to compensate the change and make this a fair and agreeable compromise. Sixty square feet of front yard was sacrificed to the rear of the house that is virtually unusable. I've spoken to Renee and I'm hopeful that we receive a positive outcome. The second unresolved issue is whether or not we will have our refrigerator or a dishwasher at closing. There are widespread shortages getting appliances and the builder isn't expecting our chosen appliances to arrive until next year. Suggestions have been made such as installing the appliances from the design center as a "borrow" until our selected appliances arrive. Understandable and unavoidable issue but nevertheless discouraging.

We moved to Del Webb Nexton in Summerville, SC for the lifestyle Pulte developer's marketed to sell…read moretheir substandard houses. Pulte avows to provide an active adult environment at their facitliy. It's discouraging to discover the community management company hired by Pulte developers allows the Lifestyle department staff to behave unprofessionally using profanity towards community residents. Unprofessional behavior and bullying is not limited to the Lifestyle department. Pulte appointed resident HOA board member also participate in the practicing of bullying. A resident board member directing residents (AKA their neighbor) to move if they are not in agreement with such things as exercise classes among other issues. The instability brought about with the hiring and appointing of individuals believing this type of deportment is acceptable is extremely disruptive to any community, I believe even more so in a community of seniors, where we are focused on a calm and peaceful existence. We all understand Pulte, the developer's objective, is building more homes and increasing their profit margin, but must it be at the detriment of the community members that have already purchased homes at Del Webb Nexton?

Be very careful about buying into this community and take what they tell you with the grain of…read moresalt. Pulte is after one thing only and that is your money. Don't listen to their promises of how great it is all the amenities which are sorely lacking. There's a tiny little pool that is supposed to accommodate over 2,000 people. They will tell you there are two other pools but frankly I bought into Del Webb nexton not these other areas with children in the pool not that I have anything against children but there's a time and a place. The amenity Center barely fits but a handful of people. The exercise classroom fits approximately 25 comfortably before you are bumping into each other. The gym can accommodate about 12 people before you're waiting in line for machines. There are no plans to add on or to build out the exercise classroom or the gym. They will tell you that they're building a new amenity Center with a multi-purpose room however they cannot tell you how this is going to work is it first come first serve can you schedule classes to be permanent the comment is we haven't figured that out yet. I would take a good look at the size of the pool and think about over 3,000 people standing around in it because that's what you're going to get but as long as they can continue to build build$$$$! When you go back to them with an issue they tell you we'll check into it and then you hear nothing in most cases. The management company is the worst I have ever seen and money is always turning up missing from the reserves and listed as general but cannot inform as to what it was used for. If I knew then what I know now I never would have bought into this community. That being said I love my neighbors and will probably be staying put for a while. Again think long and hard before you put down money in this community not to mention the traffic and the security issue we have within the community and gunshots during all hours of the night and they can't seem to find out where it's coming from.
