      Signed for my lot at the end of January 2021. I verbally was promised 9-12 months max. Of course that’s not in the signed contract. But here i am 26 months later and still getting push around. I was given at least 6 different timeframes that i would be able to close. After reading all the complaints i see the main excuse is shortage and labor but I’m watching all my friends and relatives close with other builders and they started building a whole year later. I’m so confused. The response on this site is so fast but I’m literally begging for help information anything and barely get a response. I keep signing a lease every six months which is costing me to spend more money. Like now I’m waiting for inspections was told it is a few week process. Now it’s almost a month and one person came to inspect. Like what’s is the hold up. I’m having a whole baby tomorrow. No nursery no nothing. I wasn’t even pregnant when i started building. I’m literally stuck in this contract can’t get my money back can’t use my credit like i need answers. Accurate answers some type guidance so i know where I’m going next. This lease ends in June. I was told to extend until March. Now I’m being told March is not even possible not even realistic

      The problem in the community is we have too many homes under construction and not enough contractors. Even though we have a document explaining we cannot tell you when your home will be completed we understand this process has taken much longer than anyone anticipated. Please get with your sales counselor and request a cancellation. At that time we will refund all deposits made to the builder. Also, this is a Homewood Homes complaint, not a ******* Homes complaint. Thank you

      This is not a ******* ****, but will respond. Buyer has called and stopped in, we direct our buyers back to their point of contact which is their sales representative who has been in communication as the construction team does not work in the office. Attached is an email from the lender explaining the builder is not responsible for the rate lock. If the buyer is unable to deal with the timeline we will refund all deposits made to the builder (not lender) and cancel the agreement. We also had the clients sign an undeveloped homesite addendum stating we do not know when the home will close which is attached.

      When the clients contracted in January of 2021 they purchased with the understanding the land is undeveloped (see attached). That documents states we cannot tell you when your home will start or close. We did not anticipate the labor and supply crisis that would ensure during the construction of the home. We are finishing the home as quickly as possible with the limited resources at our disposal. Understanding that, if the clients would like to cancel and receive their entire deposit back we will do that.
