CyKat - I wouldn't want to tell you what to do. However, I will relay to you my experience. I decided earlier this year to pursue purchasing a new construction home. I was very close to signing a construction contract with Beazer Homes. I decided not to sign the agreement based upon five things (1) their FED investigation, (2) their BBB report, (3) the Sales Manager's response to #1 and #2, (4) a conversation with a homeowner in the same subdivision/area, and (5) my own personal quality impressions based on an inspection of their homes in various stages of construction. I want to clarify that I am not indicating that there is no situation under which a Beazer home would be a good purchase, just that it wasn't right for me at this time. I would encourage you to consider the above five items as well. Any public information or Better Business Beaureau report in your area should be considered in the purchase of any large item such as a home. Construction is very localized (in my opinion) and the quality has a great deal to do with the construction and sales managers in the area so the opinions and quality of those in the area may help you in the decision. If you would like to discuss my decision further, I'd be happy to if you contact me directly. Regards, Michelle

So I know that you posted this over a year ago and I doubt you are still looking for the information, but I thought others might be. So here's what I know: I am currently having a home built by Hallmark Design Homes. They are in the middle of construction but I can only speak highly of their construction manager, sales manager, and all staff and subcontractors I have encountered. They are a quality builder, in my own personal opinion, and I would be willing to speak with you about my experiences if desired. Regards, Michelle
