info about the bottom right part is very helpful, thank you!
Very very helpful thank you 👏✅
Can someone tell me if the credit program they have is worth it? We have arranged and paid everything they asked us for. Now we are in the contract process and wait if in the end we are approved. Someone who can tell me about their experience if it has happened to you and if it is possible to close with 640 or less of credit with them. Thank you!!
People stay away from Samsung the all will fail in 12 months after the warranty expires 😂
Three years in, no issues.
Whoo hoo I get mine delivered today. Thank you for the tips
Excellent, we hope you enjoy every moment of it.
Beautiful home! Thank you for sharing the process.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for posting this! We just bought with dr Horton and allex floor plan, they just installed garage last week so we’re hoping it will be soon!
Best wishes on your build journey!
Hi its almost 2 years now since you guys moved into your DR home, How is everything? I am going to buy a DR home in FL. Thanks
Everything is absolutely wonderful. Be on the lookout for an update video soon.
@@theirvs793goood to hear! Looking forward to it
Thier moto is it only has to make past 2 years. -standard warranty period.
The standard warranty is actually only one year. Three years in and we are still thriving!
honestly it depends on who the CONTRACTORS that are working....but dr Horton doesn’t hire quality workers they bid the lowest
True!
I have the exact same situation where my Fridge slot is 72 and 1/4" and I wanted the new bespoke ones that are 73" tall, so it's too tall. However, its at the front, so technically can we make it fit but just have it block the cabinets above it?
Yes, it would block the cabinets. I think you will find more value in having access to the cabinets over being able to change out the fridge panels, which likely won’t happen often anyway.
@@theirvs793 thanks! Do you know if they make just white ones that are not panels? My wife wants the white but that 1 inch is killing us 🤣
❤ Y'all are TOOOO CUTE together ❤
♥️ thank you!
DR Horton is the worst. Don’t cover for them. Stop blaming the buyers- many first time homebuyers!! New should be done right. They have ruined homes for friends and family.
We aren’t covering for anyone. Just sharing our experience. Thanks for watching.
Great video! I am in the market for a new fridge. You said the flex model is the same as bespoke except for being able to exchange panels. Does the Flex model have glass doors like the Bespoke?? Keep up the great work. You made me a subscriber. Ty!
No the doors aren’t glass.
Yes I'll like to see the staining of fence. Thank you for your videos.
Hmmmmmm. We built 3 homes and my significant other was a commercial builder who built homes, schools, hospitals, office buildings in management…..DR Horton is building in our area and just being nosey, we have been watching……these homes are very cheaply built. First time buyers have no idea…..at 65 years old, I say RUN!
DR Horton has multiple “levels” of homes they build. Some are their cheaper (though cheaper is still expensive now days) versions and some are their luxury line. It’s always good for buyers to do their research so that they know what they are purchasing.
Excellent review.
Glad you liked it!
Glad you liked it!
Our first Samsung fridge lasted us 19 years, bought it in 2005 when we got married. We just bought this one and was installed yesterday :) we upgraded because the internal water hose on the first one finally gave out, easier to replace the whole fridge than fix it.
Excellent. We hope it treats you well!
IS DR HORTON THE WORST BUILDER? yes they are
That’s unfortunate to hear. Our experience was and continues to be stellar.
Their homes are Trash. Stop Selling out. I am a Property Appraiser and a License Home Inspector, and I will tell you that they are scam artist, they cut corners and they are being sued for a reason
Every tract home builder has multiple lawsuits….
@@theirvs793 is that your defense? Everyone else is trash too? You are literally trying to defend against a property appraiser who has to walk through 1000 homes a year, and a licensed home inspector. Their homes are trash, wouldnt be so bad if they actually cared about fixing their problems, but they avoid all warranty work until they get sued.
No, we are simply saying no home is perfect. Humans make mistakes. If companies fail to fix their issues, they should be held accountable….which ever tract home builder is. None of our videos have ever said that they are perfect. We have solely shared our experience. Which included them correcting issues under warranty within two days of the concern being brought to their attention. You have your experience and we have ours. ✌🏾
@@theirvs793 fair enough. I cannot speak for your experience. I am only speaking from the entire neighborhood I live in, and we all are in universal agreement that DR Horton needs to be avoided. Sorry if I it seems personally attacking, I am happy you and your family are doing well with yours, but whenever I see a positive post about DR Horton and I am watching the very walls collapsing in their living room, trusses are covered in mold, stucco falling off their homes, garage floors cement crumpling, and driveways washing away into the sewers then I feel compelled to speak out against DR Horton. I suggest people check the Consumer Affairs reports. Its not good. I mean look at the responses in your comment section. We honestly believe you are paid informer.
We bought a Dr Horton and it’s has been a nightmare since month 3 of closing. Can’t believe there can be that many issues with a new construction. Smh never again
New construction doesn’t mean perfect. Sorry to hear about your challenges. Did you an a private inspection done during the build?
You say a Team of people working on the Home. Dr Horton subcontracts all the home building to cheap Emigrant work crews who can't speak English . are you living in a dream world The Irvs ?
No, we are living our reality….
Why did you give Dr Horton a good review ? Everyone knows you buy a Dr Horton home.. that buyer is into Nightmares with the home.
We spoke about our experience buying a DR Horton home….
Does it patina?
Nope, looks just like it did on day 1.
Craig from Quality Home Inspections did my initial inspection as well. He is awesome. I am coming up on my 11month now. Let me make an appointment!
He’s great!!
Hi, Great review! only one I can find on youtube! Does the leather cover wrapped all over the bottom of the cushions too? or its only the surface of the cushion? can all the cushions be taken off of the couch base? thank you! thinking to get one but having the same issue won't see an actually couch in their store.
Hi! The leather is only on the visible top area. The bottom has more of a flat piece designed to be a bottom, if that makes sense. All of the cushions can be removed for easy cleaning of the couch.
How many weeks after dry wall was installed did you guys close?
Drywall was the halfway point, so about three months after drywall….i think. There are date stamps in the video that should be able to get a better accurate timeline.
I can not believe this video was made in the light that it was. First off, you two act like you are the first people to buy a home. D. R. Horton homes are AWFUL! Thw quality is trash. Nothing, I repeat NOTHING, in a newly built home shoud be falling apart within the first year or two. No children or pets in the home I'm referring to. Just two retired adults in their 60s and 70s. Not a drawer front. Not a piece of molding. NOTHING! Ive been buying houses for nearly fourty years and never have I ever experienced such poor quality as i have with D. R. Horton.
I can not believe your comment was written in the way it was written. First off, you came projecting your problems on us. Our DR Horton home is AMAZING! The quality is stellar. Everything, I repeat EVERYTHING, has met and exceeded our expectations. We are so happy with our home and DR Horton provided us an outstanding experience. 🤪
I’ve literally been on the fence about the Zander couch from west elm for over a year, thank you for the video…. Can you provide an update since your purchase?
We still love every single thing about this couch.
Anyone know what manufacturer makes the Zander? The West elm employees told me they have a manufacturer in the carolinas.
I absolutely love your content! Anymore videos coming soon! They’re so helpful! In the process of purchasing in the last phase there!
We are glad you like them. I’m sure we will be producing some new content soon. Are there any particular topics you are interested in?
Im purchasing one and am aware of the bad press. I walked a completed home NOT the model. Yep its the crew you get. And the quality i saw was great!
Best wishes on your purchase!
What a beautiful home im moving into a DR Horton home but their smallest floor plan
Thank you!!
Property taxes is county theft
Well, if you move to a rural area the taxes will be much cheaper. Move to an area that provides a wealth of services, taxes will be higher. The choice is yours.
Bevis and these 2 butt heads. 😂😂😂get lost!
Great video! I just (literally 15 minutes ago) purchased the Oliver sofa in Dove Twill. It’s my first furniture piece from West Elm. I was able to get it on sale for $559, usually $699, after 2 years of watching and waiting and dreaming. Estimated delivery is between 2 to 4 weeks from now! Good to know what to expect from the white glove delivery.
We hope you enjoy it!!
I’m purchasing the OPAL 2.0 nugget Ice maker this week!! But now u have me looking at this fridge for July 4th sale!!! Great review!!! I probably won’t use the ice maker in it!!
It’s funny how important ice can be!! Enjoy.
Worst builder out there.
😢
7 out of 12 homes on my street had in home major water leaks. My plumbing fixtures were loose, water lines hooked up wrong, electrical had loose wires at the outlets and all smoke detectors. 2 vents in my roof flew off during a storm due to them not securing them. And every home has to have the exterior painted because they put such a thin layer on.
Sounds like the superintendent didn’t do a very good job, and the buyers didn’t have inspections. Failure on both ends.
Do they pay you to cover for them?
Our average builder house in Upstate SC didn't have any of the issues you mentioned. The minor things that needed to be fixed were done within two days and our warranties cover everything for 1 year, most things for 2, and major things for 10.
@@CortneyBell-h9zthat’s everyone’s go to response 😅. Not covering for anyone. Just teaching folks that they too play a role in THEIR investment. If no one talks about it, everyone will keep making the same mistakes.
I grabbed mine on sale at Home Depot on sale in January. I love it , was surprised at the amount of water it uses to clean. I’m not wasting detergent any longer , I’m pleased. Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching!!
Im looking for DR Horton Homes in orlando. If I have agent ,what benefit I will get? Is it good to book home during construction or after construction? I see some homes of same model less price ,/price updated in Zillow, why is it so? In that's right time to book? At what stage we should call home inspection ? do I need Pre-approval before signing contract?
By having your own realtor, they will have all the answers to all these questions. You don’t gain or lose benefits by having your own realtor. You do lose protection by not having your own realtor. Zillow prices are never accurate for new builds. It’s best to be in contract before they start building or at least early in the process. Inspections can happen before the walls go up and again once the house is done. Yes, you need a pre-approval before signing a contract.
Thank you for the thorough review!
Our pleasure!
Can we get another update video ?
Sure thing. Be on the lookout!
Isn’t there suppose to be caulk on the baseboards?
Yes!
Just purchased mine, the newer model. Quite similar. I appreciate the video!🎉
We hope they treat you well!
It will fail in 12 months just when the warranty expires 😂 i see so many getting thrown away
@@Melo_Alienwarewell I won’t be having those issues. I care my stuff. Also, there are folks in the comments that have theirs for over 2 years.
Do you still love your sofa? Thank you
Yes, we still very much enjoy the sofa!
@@theirvs793 Thank you 💕
Congratulations on your new home! I'm glad you two had a positive customer experience with all parties involved in making your new home happen. I believe that banks and realtors who insist they want to be "good neighbors" in the communities they serve would be a huge help if they held complimentary classes/seminars for first time home buyers. Classes that will teach them all the steps for a successful purchase experience. People who had a bad experience would benefit from these classes too.
Many credit unions do offer those types of classes. The first and scariest step is walking into your bank and asking them to explain the process to you. Had we not taken that step we would have missed our opportunity to purchase while interest rates were extremely low.
YES THEY ARE!!!!
Okay 🤷🏾♂️
You are one of the lucky few. DR Horton is the Walmart of houses
I guess we got the Target treatment! 😅
DR Horton homes are mostly built like crap but yours was really nice
Thank you!
