Thanks.  I was the QP that discussed Wormald Crown, I forgot to mention that the friend that owns it talked to me about the build process and a few years post move in, had not seen any settlement issues.  Not sure if this is just anecdotal/bias or the fact that Wormald has different standards/subs for their builds.

I was weary of the TB builds but was somewhat more assured by folks that swore that TB premium builds use better subs and construction methods and the products are better.  As mentioned, I was underwhelmed when touring the Hamlet and Orchard compared to touring the Wormald SFH in Crown.  The TB felt flimsy (floor would bounce a bit).[/quote]

I'm not sure what you can count on when it comes to contractors for premium v. non-premium homes. This obviously isn't directly relevant to TB homes, but I've heard NV Homes and Ryan use the same subs, despite the very different tiers in products so who knows. We're building a home in a neighborhood with bases from high 800s, so not as expensive as MP, but when we've talked to neighbors who have already moved in ALL have been pleased. (At least with the home itself, I've heard complaints about the sales team, which we share.)

I've been surprised by that. We built with a builder years ago where everyone in the neighborhood had something to complain about when it came to their home, some with real horror stories. That said, our house was rock-solid, never had a complaint.

Maybe a bit of luck of the draw, which is quite terrifying, but I suppose not that much different than buying an existing home..especially with all the waived contingencies if you're in DC :)[/quote]
