[quote=Anonymous]We just completed constructing with Evergreene and it was smooth sailing throughout. As with any complex project, expect bumps but they are very responsive and will do things to keep you happy if they can. The pricing is transparent and it is in your control. All of the pricing is visible even before you sign the contract - spend the time to go over the sample contract and the options report. Some options cost more than what you think it should and the reverse is true as well more often than you think. You can have a fun game with spreadsheets if you like. Set your expectations right and you will be fine. Research and make sure that you are comfortable with a "production" builder. Their sweet spot is in constructing as fast as possible their standard plans. We started much later than 4 others being constructed in our neighborhood and finished at least one or two months ahead of the next one we think is farthest along. They will move walls etc but the farther you get away from the original plan, the more delays you can expect. At the end of the day, it is your house. Spend the time to make sure if is being constructed to your liking and work with the project manager when you notice things. It is likely to be too late if you show up for final walk through (or pre drywall meeting) without paying any attention as things moved along and expect that everything is perfect. Our experience has been that we got a product at a great initial quality in a zip code where brand new spec builds cost at least 200-300K more. Only time will tell how it holds up but the home inspector said it was much better initial quality with more attention to detail than usual.[/quote]
