Design Homes at Soraya Farms In early 2021 We decided to…read morestart looking for our next home, and we met with a few different builders to go over what we wanted. Most of the builders were not your average builder. We knew exactly what we wanted in a house and what we could afford and what we were willing to spend. We were greeted with nothing but hostility and people who were downright rude. We had been through a couple of Design Homes during Homearama, we didn't really think we could afford the caliber home they provided. We decided to go through an open house one day, it wasn't really the layout we wanted but the finishes were what we wanted. We were greeted by an older gentleman who was only there to show the House and see his daughter for the weekend. He was super nice and really knew a great amount about the home for someone who was there for the weekend. He asked us what we were looking for and what the house didn't have that we would like, he then decided to walk us over to the next house and introduce us to his wife. She was also there to see her daughter and show the homes for the weekend. Completely made sense to us, they were super friendly and social. We loved the houses we saw, I kept thinking to myself "man this is going to be out of reach we shouldn't have come here and looked". The next weekend we decided what the heck we don't really know until we go and find out, so we made an appointment to meet with the VP of sales Angela Flory "the daughter". Again, we were greeted and treated with nothing but respect and kindness, we looked at the beautiful Model and went over a couple other floor plans. We were never hounded about if or what we could afford. We ended up liking a floor plan they had under construction and went under contract 2 days later. The entire time Angela made us feel welcome and kept us informed on everything that was going on, the house was going to be done in roughly eight months. Six months in at 5:30 on a Friday I text Angela briefly asking her to call me, it was important. I am sure that was the last thing she wanted to see, especially on a Friday. I made it worse and told her we no longer wanted the house we were currently under contract on, she seemed caught off guard and politely asked what do you mean? They had a house we loved that was a little more than we were comfortable with but it was exactly what we wanted top to bottom, it looked like it was built for us. I asked her if we could buy this house instead and close right away, she was shocked and said wow this could be a little hard to make happen with the mortgage and all of that, I had already called the mortgage guy and had all that worked out. She called me an hour later and got everything approved for moving our deposit and got the contracts drawn up right away. We closed about 30 days later. I think one of the things that really shocked me was when Angela asked us if breaking the lease on our apartment was going to be a problem since we were moving the time line up, it didn't seem like she cared about selling us that house more so that it was going to make since for us at the time, that really meant Al lot to us and made it feel more like a family an genuine experience. We could not be any happier with our home. From the very first day we have always felt like we mattered and that we were not just a paycheck at the door. The follow up has been great, we really have no complaints at all. We would 100% recommend Design Homes and especially Angela to anyone and everyone, we will absolutely buy another home with her and with Design Homes. Next time will be on land. To the entire Design Homes team and Angela Thank you for all your help and making this an outstanding experience for us.

I chose Perkins to manage my mom's estate sale based on a good BBB rating, professional website,…read morethe caring nature of owner Gayle Wells, and because they'd been around since the 1940s. Despite that, they ran my mom's estate into the ground. Hopefully I can save YOU the same heartache and frustration that I've experienced. I even gladly paid an extra 10% due to the quantity of stuff in my mom's house, so they got 40% of the proceeds. Overall the stuff wasn't particularly dirty, just dusty from storage. I'll list the issues roughly in order of when they happened, but the first one is first because it's so egregious. If you don't want to wade through the details, the summary is: RUN AWAY AND DON'T LOOK BACK. -- Part of the sale was an expensive sports car. A relative was there on the first day of the sale, and overheard Gayle on the phone with an employee. Gayle was angry, telling him to bring the car back, it could be damaged, and he shouldn't have taken it to lunch. My relative alerted me and I called Gayle. Gayle outright lied. I asked how the car was, and she said fine. I asked if I got there in a few minutes would it be there; deer in headlights, then she said it was on a test drive. But it should be back in a few minutes, right? After hesitating again, she said that it was actually on a test drive in a city that's ALMOST 40 MILES FROM THE ESTATE SALE. Finally I told her I knew it was taken out for lunch, and she made up a story about her employee taking it to SHOW someone in another town, and that he then went to lunch in it. Note, the car was never supposed to leave the property except for supervised test drives. -- Her employee also took the car to CarMax without my consent, ruining my chance to clean up and assess the car before taking it there, resulting in a lower valuation. -- Gayle promised nothing except obvious garbage would be thrown out before I could see it. We agreed that no one except survivors knows what may have sentimental value. But during sale prep, anything even slightly imperfect was tied up in trash bags and set aside for me to figure out how to dispose of it. Examples include a heavy glass relish tray that had a tiny chip; ladies shoes where the inside lining had loosened; books; medical equipment, new in boxes; who knows what else? -- After I spent days organizing a MASSIVE amount of jewelry, pairing earrings, putting sets together, etc, the appraiser seems to have literally dumped all the sorted containers onto the couch, then dumped the costume jewelry into a huge bin for buyers to sift thru. I believe this for 2 reasons. Only hours after the sale started, I found that many earrings were missing their mates (they said buyers will carry an item away and set it somewhere else ... a), I call BS, and b), aren't you supposed to be KEEPING PEOPLE FROM DOING JUST THAT?). The other reason is that two earrings that I specifically remember sorting were later found under the sofa cushions - where the appraiser worked. Hm. -- Neither I nor my family members ever saw a road sign advertising the sale. -- Most items were horribly overpriced. Examples include $20 for sets of 3 or 4 plates; $6 for a half-used candle the still had its $5 price tag; $15-$25 for curtain panels. Later 3 separate people who know Gayle told me WITHOUT PROMPTING that this is normal. -- Other items were misvalued by the appraiser. Examples include a $650 watch priced $15 and a $200 watch priced $10. Gayle even admits this. -- Many dozens (hundreds?) of items were left uncleaned and unpriced, pushed back in closets, cupboards, under stairs, etc. -- Many items that were priced were left uncleaned. -- Some antique items were priced by WRITING THE PRICE DIRECTLY ON THE ITEM IN BLACK SHARPIE. Examples include a 1968 set of collectible coins and picture frames. -- Despite promises, coat pockets were not checked (or they purposely left used tissues in 6 coat pockets). -- Gardening pots & tools and a set of wood kitchen cabinets, was brought from the shed and left in the yard the day before the sale, despite a forecast 100% chance of rain or snow that night. -- Those items were moved to the garage at my request, but after the sale many planters were left outside in the mud. -- Garage was left open & unattended for hours at a time. -- Lawnmower left sitting outside in the rain until I moved it under cover (which was less than 5 feet away). -- A buyer shattered the screen door glass moving furniture; Perkins cleanup method was to leave glass shards in the mulch, entryway, and porch and walkway, and leave the empty frame (with glass shards sticking out all around it) in the back yard. All the glass they DID clean up was left for me in a recycle bin with holes in the bottom. -- Despite promises, items that were new in original boxes had those boxes thrown away, greatly reducing the value of those items. This was important because most items didn't sell, so I had to try to resell and/or donate them.
