[quote=Anonymous]I'm not a fan of new homes because they are built with so much glue and plastic. Beams are are no longer solid wood - they are boards made out of little pieces of scrap wood glued together, and then bound together in 3's to maybe simulate the strength of a solid piece of wood. Go on a construction site during the rain and the chemical smell is overwhelming, and you see the leaks. Go around a neighborhood that was built 5 years ago and you'll see siding that blows around in the wind. None of this can be good. I understand that this is a generalization, and some new homes may be quality - but you have to know what's in them and how they were built. Maybe custom homes built by a known contractor? All the rest seems like crap. [/quote]
