The sales person told me that he would sell me a brand NEW house and exclude the premium for a corner lot. Two days later, the contract was rejected by the owner of the company. In the mean time, my wife and I fell in love with the house, and agreed to pay the additional fee.
We were also told that if we used their finance company (The Continental Group) that I would get a $3,000.00 credit towards closing. At the time of closing, the $3,000.00 were never credited to me. The credit statement was not written on the initial contract; however, I have e-mails from the loan processor telling me not to worry about the $3k, that I was going to get them.
The closing was done on a Thursday afternoon, with The Greater Title Company, and they had all documents dated one day behind, due to an error caused by The Continental Group. Needless to mention I paid taxes, interest, principal, and insurance for that one day.
After closing, Shoma's customer service had scheduled the hot check and the appliances to be delivered the following week. I have 3 kids ranging in age from 6 months to 4 years old, and a wife. I needed to move out of my old house and into the new one during the weekend.
I did not have A/C, refrigerator, range, microwave, washer and drier. I asked the customer service people, why they sold a house that was not livable. Thet had no answer. I was able to convince the air conditioning and electrical company to solve this problem for me the following Friday. A task that seemed impossible for the people in customer service.
On top of the above-mentioned, I had the following problems with the house; air conditioner was not wired properly, missing door to the garage, un-even backyard, dead sod, debris in the front and backyard, no power in bathrooms, water intrusion in garage, side access door did not open, unfinished concrete surfaces in balcony , garage and terrace, missing compressor disconnect switches, scratched bath tubs, broken tiles, incomplete survey, and more.
