DR HORTON has been an absolute nightmare for my family. Imagine this, we moved into our so called new home in July 2004.

We thought is was a great price for the size but we did not know any better. On our 30 day warranty, our hardwood floors started to rise off of the floor do to moisture. We were told that there was no moisture. Well one month later black mold appeared in the same area.

They came out to so call fix it ripped up my floors in that one area and claimed that the problem was fixed. Of course 2 months later we noticed that not only in the same area was problems that all over the house the floors were rough and moisture was getting in. they came back out again ripped up my floors all over the house and patched them back up. Think I am finished ,yeah right.

We happened to go to our third floor that we do not frequent often , and guess what. Leaky roof and water and caved in the ceiling. One of the outside pipes was never insurlated to water was accumulating int he celing and we did not know until it caved in. Yes they had to rip my ceiling out and make another mess.

Oops back to the floors. Of course about 4 months later floors peeling and of course I am crazy. Opps forgot to tell you that I had hot water coming out of my toilet and outside faucets due to faulty plumbing. The list goes on and on.

They suck.

In addition to going through all of this mess with DR HORTON, we have a daugther with cancer. Do not buy a home from DR HORTON Look at my news story on www.wltx.com and type in my name

Is there a class-action suit against DR Horton in CA? If not...we need to start one ASAP!!!!

Guest

:( They are as you say ***! My Dr Horton house is a nightmare, I have sulphur attack from the soil that is eating away at the foundation of my house in Casa Grande Az, Water pipes that were not braced,stucco that was not completed windows that are cracking from using rubber casing( not condusive with az heat)drywall that is pulling away from ceiling.

roof truss that are breaking, water downed paint to paint house when i washed the house most of the paint ran off leaving stain runoff look.and so on.

Called there office and they sent a rep ,who said he would fix most items,primary issue the foundation, they dug a trench around my foundation and retaining walls a month ago and never came back and will not return or answer my calls. my advise is to stay away from there homes as they do not stand behind there work,by the way they subcontract everything.

I'd like to be contacted regarding any class action suites against DR Horton in the Downing Glen section of Morrisville, NC; 27560. My parents (both of whom are extremely ill) bought a townhouse in 2005, sent numerous letters to DR Horton's Corporate office in Ft. Worth in 2007, with engneer inspection: There is apparant structural damage

Guest

I live in a DR Horton home and have been very happy with it. The home is 8 years old now, and there have been no major problems.

Luis...I have a hard time mustering up much sympathy for you.

Did you not read your loan documents? It's pretty clear in there what the payment is going to be and how the loan is structured...

I could NOT find the story on wltx.com either. Natsha, why didn't you post the link to the news story.

I did an extensive search on Google and wltx.com.

Please post a link to the story. I'll do the same if I ever find it.

My husban and I just got married and now we are looking into getting us a house. We have 2 yr old son and want the best for him.

DH Horton is giving us a great deal after reading all of the comments we are really thinking about just not going with their offer.

Please help us as much as possible. We live in the Houston,Spring,Texas area.

Guest

DR. Horton is a lying, cheating, scammer and etc.

Their house price is all artificially inflatted. They provide appraisal that magically matches the price of their house. In actual fact the appraiser is their inhouse sister company. Our neighbourhood is lossing their home due to them caught in DHI beit and switch mortgage deal and the BALLOON PAYMENT that the homeowners have overlook.

We almost got trap but we caught them, somewhere in their clossing doc, BE CAREFULL to check before you sign. BE VERY_VERY CAREFULL with DR.Horton and DHI.

Joel O Izs

I also have had many problems with this company anyone who has been having problems with this company contact me @ joellynn225@***.net i am about go toe to toe with them about defalting on a warranty

Guest

Sally you obviously can do search the story is right there on wltx.com. I just put dr horton in the search engine on their page.

The story is true.

Im glad I came here before I went into to contract with DR Horton. Its always good to research before you make any life changing decisions!!!!!

Guest

D R Horton and construction defects go hand in hand. In CO, a $40M class action was settled for water intrusion.

On Daniel Island SC, another community has filed another class action because of water intrusion.

In Texas after Katrina blew, DHI consumers learned that their homes weren't properly rated for hurricanes. I could go on and on but its easier if you search 'd r horton' and 'construction defects'

Guest

I can't believe I wasted time trying to find your so-called news story. I hate you.
