Beazer Homes Reviews in Myrtle Beach, SC

Be very careful and make sure you totally understand what they are offering. Words get twisted, stories change, promises get broken and there is a lot of misinformation given out. The homes seem well made but all the trades lacked finesse and quality. Already many problems to fix on a brand new home. The standard options leave much to be desired. Minimal quality at best.

I have never written a bad review, but in this case I sought out every place on the internet to leave a review about my experience! I have written 7 so far and I will continue until I am no longer angry, and that may take a while!!

I feel that they knew I was moving in and at the last minute just threw stuff together. Have had several issues which some have been taken care of. Had trouble with my water heater and they had the plumber come out. If someone represents a company they should have a card with their name on it. You may know who they are, but I don't. Am not new to moving as we have moved 10 times and built 3 custom homes. Grant it this is not a CUSTOM hone, but it is my home and one I hope to enjoy. You also need to notify homeowners when a water pumping truck is coming and blocking my way for 45 min. I am a heat patient and what if there were an emergency. Communication here is not very good. Could be improved upon. ... More

I’ll start by saying this Rudy from warranty is the exception. He has been nothing but professional and has worked hard to try and tackle a very long list of issues. Even at times when I’ve lost my cool he has been understanding of my frustration and has been nothing but great. After that there isn’t anything about beazer I could hang my hat on me and my neighbor’s yard has not been usually since our move in it’s been wet and mushy since day on they re graded portions but there’s still issues. The house on the other side sits higher and the rain drains to my side and sits there. Toward the front of the house on the side seems to be graded fairly ok but you can clearly see where towards the back it’s flat. My grass has turned to algae in spots and when you touch it, it tears wipes off to mud. I have a young daughter and a dog and northerlies have used the backyard due to this. I was lied to from the start of the process till the end the house was rushed and it shows the list is so long we were asked to hold off on submitting anymore warranty requests until they can catch up. Things we pointed out before drywall was up are still an issue the island Fran is out of plum which we pointed out. Trim wasn’t cut correctly walls weren’t sanded doors weren’t sanded poor patch marks for wholes that were in doors our French doors look terrible. Concrete was broken and hidden with pine straw during final walk they and the repair job is a joke. Concrete splatter all over. Sod stopped a few inches from curb. With no dirt in between or a bunch of sand in between depending on location. I have faith in Rudy addressing most of these issues while I do think it is going to take months if not almost the whole year to address. The landscaping at this point is very disappointing as it doesn’t appear the landscapers will do anything about it and I believe it’s above Rudy on whether he can also. I’d love for someone from corporate beazer to come visit and see some of the issues and try to tell me honestly I got what I paid for. ... More

I thought the home was very well built and I have nothing to say but good things about construction, but they did not take into consideration the clay soil and appropriately add addition top soil so it would help absorb Water. Excavation and landscaping is horrible. Our property has not dried out since we have taken possession on September 27. I believe additional drainage is needed or it will never dry out.

Overall experience was very good with project manager Johnathan. He was responsive and kept us in the loop in everything as it was progressing which was very important to us since we were doing this from out of state. Kathryn has been very timely and responsive on the finishing touches that were needed after closing. Very happy with our home and the area. We’ve recommended to others looking to relocate.

Closing went very well for us,and we our from out of state,everyone worked with us and we closed in about 3 weeks.Of course there are a few minor problems,but they answered our calls right away and fixed the problems.

Think about an extra power outlet outside the back of the house. Our model the Camden could have used an electric outlet in the washer/ dryer room as well

My husband and I have been looking for our perfect retirement home for over a year and found it with Bella Vita Gardens in Myrtle Beach! The garden home checked off all of our "have to have" boxes! Jenny was so nice to work with and Matt fixed any minor details before closing! Can't wait to retire so we can enjoy our home and explore the South!

We knew that building a new home from a distance of 1,000 miles away would be challenging but the challenges came later. We loaded up our new home with lots of extras but the construction crew banged out our house like the other cookie cutter homes and forgot to add the extras we purchased like upgraded molding on windows and baseboards, upgraded tile shower, stainless vent hood. The installed fiberglass shower had to be ripped out and they left behind damaged walls when new tile shower was finally installed correctly, microwave that we did not want was installed so that had to be ripped out and backsplash redone. I could go on and on. If you just want the cookie cutter house they build you will be happy but we opted for a lot of the extras they offer and it has been very challenging getting the house completed the way we want it. Beazer in a big hurry to close on homes to get their money but not in a big hurry to fix issues after closing that need addressing. After closing, their contact people at the property never answer voicemails or texts. They have moved on to the next group of homes that need to get finished and closed. I am sure all of our issues will be addressed eventually after submitting them multiple times to the Beazer warranty department. ... More

We had our doorbell ringer inside almost catch on fire less than a month moved into our brand new home! Called the warranty service right away to get an electrician out and it has been 3 weeks and still nothing!!! The warranty is a joke. We also had a few other issues and still have not heard back from anyone in over a week!

HOME IS EVERYTHING WE WANTED, CRAFTSMANSHIP IS OUTSTANDING. THE SUPPORT IS AMAZING. HOME INSPECTION OR WALK THROUGH WAS VERY THOROUGH, MATT WAS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND HELPFUL. +

We love our new Beazer Garden Home. All the staff from Jenny, our sales rep to Matt our walk thru guy, gave us wonderful service. The staff has been on top of any problem we have had, thanks to Rudy, the warranty worker. Only complaint we have is with the management company employed to represent the garden homes. Why do they need a key to my house? To receive a threatening letter about taking me to litigation if a key is not provided seems to me to border-on Gestapo tactics. Why does FSR need emergency access to our homes? Their office is in Murrells Inlet. By the time a key would be delivered here, the emergency would be over. So why does FSR need a key?It took 3 weeks to have a trash can delivered. Multiple phone calls were not returned. We went to the Murrells Inlet office and the representative couldn’t be bothered to come out to greet us. Beazer Homes are great ,but beware of the management company they employ. ... More

I think beazer is fine I like my house , I find they are a little lax when it comes to concerns I don’t want to have 20’case #’s would be nice if they showed a bit more concern for the cases at hand

Beazer has a well-earned reputation for building quality homes. My experience with them is excellent. They are fast, efficient and very responsive to your questions, concerns and needs. No unpleasant surprises!

This is the third home we’ve ever owned and this is, by far, the best home buying experience we have had. When my wife and I were considering moving to the Myrtle Beach area, we were there on vacation and just looking to see what was available in the area. While searching, an advertisement for Beazer Homes Bella Vita Gardens appeared on my wife’s iPad. So we decided to check them out. When we walked into the model home, my wife and I fell in love and knew this is what we wanted. Over the next year, we kept in contact with the new home counselor and when we were ready, we returned and decided to purchase a unit. She was very knowledgeable and thorough and very helpful in finding a way to help us live our dream. From choosing the components and appliances for our unit to choosing one of their preferred mortgage companies, everyone involved in the process was very kind and kept us involved in the entire building process. The quality of their homes is top-notch and they take pride in their home construction. Thank you for building some of America’s finest homes. ... More

Initial interaction with salesperson was pleasant and informative. Construction process could be enhanced by affording homebuyer the opportunity to meet with individual subcontractors (as necessary) to ask questions relative to the contractors discipline. This process should continue thru completion with appropriate trade rep present assuring direct communication between buyer and contractor. Project manager would also be aware of buyers concerns. Design/layout suited us well. Basics are limited and options are pricey. Home appears to be well built, hopefully time doesn't paint a different picture. All our concerns were addressed. Some timely, some not so much. As with any major purchase, buyers needs to do some home work, and educate themselves to insure the finished product is worth the investment. ... More

Overall, I love the new home. However, all building and finishing was done with me living in another state. While most things were handled well, the lawn was not - it's green and growing but so uneven it's extremely difficult to mow - it should have been properly leveled prior to sod being put down.

GREAT HOME BUILDER TO BUY A HOME FROM

Everything is wonderful and my builder Rick was the best. After closing no one cares about you. My floor not fixed and the easements are being taken care of why would I buy a lot next to water if I didn’t want to see it.

During our building process we experienced several different performance. First our buying and sales experience was very positive. John, the sales agent was extremely helpful and guided us through the various selection process professionally. If anything be aware there are a lot of choices and some things slip through the crack, so beware and personally make sure what you want is written down on the order. Do not take anything for granted. Then came the purchasing experience which was the most stressful, unprofessional and troubling experience. Janise, from the Oleander office, is extremely unfriendly, unprofessional, lacks customer relations skills, and want “her way”, with no compromises or negotiations what mistakes at the sales level occurred. Beware, make sure everything at the sales level is documented, Miss Janise, informed us that she will not back up what the sales agent promised or said, and “that you have a signed contract”, and not changes can be made. She personally held up the start of the building process by 2 months because of her inflexibility and arrogance. We changed lots after 10 days to a more expensive lot (the new lot had a $45,000 more premium). She would not accept this change because they received the new purchase agreement on day 11 and because the sales agent had not completed a change order. Because she continued to apply any down payment to the old lot, our real estate agent could not reason with her, John (Beazer, sales agent) could not reason with her and her abruptness to us we stopped payment on all the checks and had decided to walk away from the deal, leaving aver $12,000 on the table. It took a meeting of our sales agent with the president of the division to resolve the situation. Expecting the worst during the building process, we met the builder, Johnathan. What a delight to work with this experienced, professional, knowledgable, customer focused Beazer employee. If it were not for Johnathan we would have walked away from Beazer and the home at Park Place, Myrtle Beach, SC. My wife and I thank Johnathan for everything he did to manage the building of our home. He realized, unlike Janise, that purchasing a home is an emotional experience and he did everything right to ensure our satisfaction and peace of mind. Now that we are in the house our experience with the warrentee people has been very positive, both on the local level, Katherine and with the corporate representatives. All in all, the building process with Beazer involves lots or waste and rework, BUT, they make good on their workmanship and promises. ... More

It was an excellent experience from beginning to end. It is a well maintained development which is centrally located. The homes are well built and have updated designs. It is a very pleasant community to live in.

Paid cash and builder fast tracked closing. went for final walk through and had to deal with house cleaners and we did our inspection. wet floors vacuums running. To say the least I was distracted and house was not up to standards. Still getting things handled. BTW the worse interior painting I have ever experienced

The people at Beazer are great to deal with but, unfortunately, getting things done right the first time seems to take a backseat to speed of construction. We are slowing working through issues but still have a lengthy list of items to address as well as the inconvenience of having to wait in 4 hour time-frames for various contractors to remedy items that should have been correct at construction time. While all new construction will have punch list items, this one was much more than expected or necessary. Would definitely recommend close scrutiny at any walk-through opportunities prior to closing. ... More
