Standard Pacific Homes
Awful experience

My husband and I have been under a contract with Standard Pacific Homes (SPH) for almost 2 years in Pembroke Pines, Florida. (Cobblestone) Our original contract with them was at the Montclair Homes. As a result of the developers poor sales, they cancelled our contract @ Montclair and offered another model in Cobblestone. They offered an incentive of 100,000.00 off the original price of the town-home at the time last year. We had notice that the construction of our home was delayed for quite sometime. Now as the construction is going forward, we are encountering changes to the original model of the home we purchase. (An example) They are modified a balcony to a reduce 1 person balcony instead of the original design, where two to three people were able to sit in the original balcony as showed in the model. Secondly they have change the original HOA contract we sign. They are now requiring that we purchase the homeowners insurance which was originally included in the HOA fees as signed in the purchase contract. As a result, we have had to retain an attorney at this time especially after being threaten by Ms. KC Messer that they will keep our $18,000.00. Our attorney has also informed us that the developer has not responded to any of his letters. They honestly feel they can modify and change our original contract and design of the home and we just have to take it as it comes. We are very concern as to what else is this developer changing in the home to reduce cost. It is obvious, that they will continue to change our contract agreement and perhaps feel that they are above the law. We are planning to obtain a permit with the City of Pembroke Pines. We will stand with warning signs advising any potential buyers what sort of developers they will be dealing with. Who knows how many other buyers that are in a contract with Standard Pacific Homes, are in the same boat we are in. These developers should not get away threatening and changing contracts as they pleased.
