The review I posted earlier was accurate and there are many records to share with anyone who is considering this builder. The most relevant is Mr. Boyko's deposition (taken and answered under oath and penalty of perjury) which contradicts many of his excuses and responses to the review. (EDIT: it appears Boyko's response has been deleted.)
Many of the photos that were posted were of the master bathroom as ABC left it when they walked off the project. Notice - no sink or tub. What you can't see is that there is no toilet or shower installed either! This is the most expensive part of the entire project...would YOU give someone their final payment if you were left with this?!? (Especially when the contract SPECIFICALLY says final payment is only due when the county issues a final permit?) Additionally, there wasn't one room in the entire house that was finished. And lastly, after demanding that final payment, 14 months later Boyko finally admitted he had made a substantial error (in our favor) of over $80,000. But if we hadn't counter-sued and if we had just paid him what he demanded, he would have no doubt pocketed that money.
Boyko suggests that a settlement was reached that all parties agreed to. Correct. We had no choice. According to our attorney, the only way for us to retrieve any of the amount he owed us was to let him come out of bankruptcy and pay us 10 cents on the dollar. We took that amount instead of zero and continued legal fees. He knew exactly what he was doing and when he says he was protecting other customers, the bottom line was that he was only protecting himself.
Again, happy to share court documents (including his deposition testimony) and photos. We don't want this to happen to anyone else. read more
