Can anyone share experiences thoughts on a recent DR Horton home?

This thread is DR Horrible

Our first home was built by DR Horton. There wasn't a 90 degree angle in it.

Think of a trailer, but built on site on a slab

My mom had one. She wanted it because of the faux French villa look, high ceilings, and the big bathroom, but it is pretty cringe worthy. I've had to fix a lot of things on it, serious plumbing issues, electrical wasn't done right, there's a lot of shortcuts, and the slab is still settling so the doors and whatnot have had to be adjusted and even trimmed.

Oh, and they didn't use primer on the walls. The houses are really close together. The dirt is mostly sand and is situated so that everyone can see in everyone else's back yard. No mature trees anywhere. The garage isn't wide enough for two modern vehicles and there's no extra storage like a boat port. The roof overhangs are only like 1' (or less) instead of the 2.5' to 3' overhangs on older homes.

The worst part are the neighbors, cigarette smoking, and pit bulls that you will find yourself living amongst once the neighborhood ages.

Find yourself an older home in an established neighborhood and update it.

I'm a home inspector, don't do it.

I go into DR Horton homes quite a bit because the company I work for sells granite to them . I laser shoot the counters and see how poorly these houses are built. A starter home maybe but if your in it for the long haul maybe look elsewhere

I had one a few years back. It was a nice little house. Lived there 6 years and I didn’t have any problems.

They are so bad, they make my DSLD look like a professional built it

A lot of people speaking from experience.
Same here and don't buy one.
Windows leaked (condensation) or misaligned.
Plumbing leak in kitchen. Sloppy construction overall.
