Moved in October 2017, our home had a few cosmetic issues, would consider standard issues for new construction. Interior and exterior paint, garage door opener, cabinets and fixtures on the lower end of builder grade. Some of the buyer upgrades would be standard in Minto or Lennar homes. Otherwise, no complaint on the structure of the home.
The builder still operates the HOA and is lacking in the upkeep of the property. When comparing builders, Minto and Lennar communities shine in this category. I am certain when the HOA is turned over to the community, the upkeep issues will resolve.
As most know, with any new build, monitor everything with the build and ensure you document everything wrong. Walk the property, several times, at all different times of the day. Talk to residents that live in the community your purchasing in and older communities of the builder.
We are happy with location and living in Pembroke Pines is a plus!
Bottom line, if I had to purchase again, I would consider shopping around Pembroke Pines a bit more and compare other local builders. read more
