Buyers beware! I lost my job after 15 years and became real sick with fibromyalgia. Had to sell my conventional home and down Size. So I thought I would buy a modular home to save money.
My first mistake was in choosen a company called homes of merit. They are the builder. My second mistake was choosen a dealer called central mobile homes. Tthey do all the site prep, order the home septic system, well etc.
All of homes of merits advertising is you can be in this home in two months or less the best built home you will love it. All the normal bull sh*. I ordered the home on Jan and after a year on Jan I could move in.
I spent a whole year on rent and storage came to about $ 15,000 homes of merit says it's the dealers fault. And the dealer says it homes of merits fault. I could have had a regular house built in this amount of time.
Homes of merit was nice enough to send a crew of drunks out to put my home together. The drunks fell through my ceiling in three different places. I am talking about there whole body fell through. I, at least know my bar works well. Because they left all their beer bottles on the bar
The roof turned out to be a nightmare warped looked terrable sags roof crew had to come out five different times. Floors had sags in them, toilets leaked doors dont close well, walls are crooked.
Real real real poor workmanship. You know the kind when they just slap it together. I don't think any of these workers ever seen a level or a ruler. When material won't fit and it's cut to short they just fill the BIG gap with chaulking.
Exterior doors are mounted crooked, window holes are cut crooked. When the home first arrived it had nine cracks in the ceiling and seven cracks in the walls.
My opinion this homes of merit company sells junk. They did not install moisture barrier wrap around my all wooden house so now Im in court for that. I have lots of other stories. But too tired to write more. Ssome of these things have been fixed. But there is still lots to do.
Please be very carefull when you buy this junk
Central mobile homes labelle, FL was a bit* to work with on this project. Always late with every thing concrete, septic tank, well, stem wall, electric. Central mobile homes says it normal to take a year to put a modular home up. What a scam or should I say scum bag
