D.R. Horton

Only 2 weeks into our new home and the service is horrible. Things wrong before closing with 3 walk throughs, one a final before we close, promises to get things done. The super won’t answer your calls or emails for up to 6 days. You have to threaten to speak to management before getting anywhere with DR Horton. I always heard they were horrible in Colorado where I am from, but everyone told me it was different here in Texas. NOPE! I should have thought this through before we purchased a house from DR Horton. Fence was not properly installed so now there is a huge gap under the fence, the sprinter system must not have been properly installed because its not working, took them almost 2 weeks to re-​key two of our locks because no response was required by the supervisor. Small things that should not be a problem are the biggest problem and biggest headache to try to get fixed. DO NOT GO THROUGH THEIR LENDER EITHER. DHI WAS A SERIOUS JOKE. Thats an entirely different post but DR Horton quality is just a rumor. Oh, and they won’t keep up with your lawn they instal after they built the home to closing. My lawn after one cut, pretty much looks dead. Very disappointed in DR Horton.

Buyer Beware! One would expect DR Horton to deliver you a brand new home, free of defects and damage and properly cleaned inside and out. Well think again! From top to bottom DR Horton over promises and under delivers, and rarely does the quality live up to the price tag. From home owner punch list items that are never addressed to improperly installed materials that voids the manufactures warranty, DR Horton is only concerned with getting you to closing on their time table. You and your hard earned money are just a number, a fact which DR Horton will remind you of whenever you raise concerns about your new home being completed on time.

We purchased our DR Horton home in September 2007. Our AC went out July 2008 and Christianson (the Ac company that installed the unit) initially gave us a horrible time about covering the major part that went out because our home had actually been completed 13 months prior. (And the warranty was only good for 12 months) It took almost a week to have the unit repaired… imagine being in 100 degree heat with no AC and pregnant on top of that. So in addition to the Ac going out… The toilet parts all had to be replaced within a couple years and the front door knob completely fell off as well within probably 3 years. If you drive around the neighborhood, you will notice probably half of the homes have had to replace front door handles. We had the unfortunate luck of having our home struck by lightning in July of 2013 – not DR Hortons fault by any means – but the two electricians we had out for estimates both said the wiring in the house was not high quality and would not have even met code if in the city of Austin. So long story short, 60% of our home needs to be re-​wired from the storm but State Farm is using the excuse that the houses wiring was bad from the start.

First the address is wrong on this listing is wrong. The new address is:
Highland Park
18 101 Mammoth Cave
Pflugerville, TX 78 660
PH: (512) 251‑1225
FX: (512) 251‑1979
Highland park is an idyllic place to live. The trails parks and greenbelts are amazing. The HOA is kind of useless though. At 2 years old our HVAC needed rewiring. Our home at 3 years had shingles come off due to improper installation. Also on the 3 year our HVAC needed a new motor. 4^th year our hot water heater started leaking and after we had that fixed it went out completely.
