The Village on West 5th Street

*Updated* Original 5-star post is below. After a year and a half in the house, we still have warranty items on the house that have not been fixed. Huge time sucker dealing with Village’s Warranty Department and getting them to call contractors and get the promised work completed. After living in the house for more than a cup of coffee, you realize corners that were cut throughout the house. Example, our backyard landscaping was never level or evenly sloping away from the foundation. During heavy rainfall there would be up to 5 inches of standing water just off our patio. After asking multiple times for them to come do dirt work and re-sod, their solution was to cap a gutter with a drain which did not fully fix the issue. One of many issues, safety issues none the less. Also, some doors don't stay open or fully shut, HVAC throughout the house isn't regulated so furthest rooms from furnace or AC fluctuate significantly, corners cut 100%. When they pitched us on the house, they said our kitchen was unlike any other house and no other house has the island color our house would have. Turns out the Village home directly across from us has the same kitchen and island color. If you’re buying a Village Home, have an inspection done once the foundation is poured, during framing, and right before you close. Get everything in writing. They sell you the house and move on to more builds, same with most builders. The small business feel was a good front. Original post below: My wife and I were nervous in purchasing our first home. However, Village Homes made the process extremely enjoyable as Jill and Miranda are great people. The construction of the house is second to none and the warranty department/Village are efficiently working to fix minor issues in the house. Very pleased and not planning on moving for a while!
