DiVosta Homes Reviews in Sarasota Bradenton, FL

This builder employees build managers that are incompetent or just do not care enough. This builder rushes contractors work on the homes that make workmanship inferior. Only bright spot was our build manager Joe Kenny here in South Florida. Worst was first assigned build manager Carson Clemens.

My new home at Talon Preserve is wonderful. The experience with the staff has been great! The reason they get 4 stars instead of 5 is because we didn't close on time (only by a week) and after we moved in we noticed a few things weren't attended to....some paint drips, caulk on the tile, etc.. Overall, I would buy from DiVOSTA again.

Nice home and well built.

I am extremely pleased with the final product but communication throughout the building process was non existent. Also, the lack of communication continued during the completion of punch list item.

Quality builder. Very responsive to warranty issues.

DiVosta has been very difficult to work with to address the issues with our new build.

Sales was great, contract was clear and no surprises

My experience with the Sales Representative Linda was very good! She did a fine job! My Field Manager Nadine, was excellent. I have to say, she was on top of everything & everyone! She is a very hard worker & has to tolerate a lot of nonsense & disrespect from many ignorant people! The Builder should respect the fact that these two women do their job right! It's very sad that they have to cover the Builder's Back for their Contractors SHOTTY work to begin with in order to CLOSE on house!! I lived in my house for 1 month with DEAD plants out my door before they were replaced! I have an outside Light by my front door that was put in wrong and left with a good size hole in the Stucco and is loose to boot and the contractor just painted over the hole thinking that it would NOT BE NOTICED, however, the Builder wants to just CLOSE on the house! The second day that I was in my home & had to do laundry, found everything backing up in the house.....that was a wonderful experience! I had to wait until mid afternoon the next day before a plumber came, which meant I could not use a toilet or any water!! The person that actually did my closing, and I do forget her name, unfortunately, was a very lovely woman! Thank God that she took care of me, because the woman that was arranging the closing, was very arrogant ! I have dealt with Title Companies before and NEVER dealt with anyone like her ever! By the way, thank God I read the paperwork thoroughly, because there was a mistake on the Lot # that had to be corrected! This was NOT A GOOD EXPERIENCE FOR ME!!! ... More

The introduction to the DiVosta home buying experience was not what I would have ever expected. The expertise from the staff at the sales office set the tone from the start. The communication was on going and all my questions were answered. My phone calls and emails were always answered in a timely manner. I was always spoken to in terms that I understood and I never felt uncomfortable asking questions. When I closed on my home I was overwhelmed at how beautiful it is. The attention to detail and the superior quality of the materials far surpassed my vision for what my home would look like. The field managers that accompanied me on my walk through were thorough and professional explaining every part of the home inside and out. I can’t say enough about the DiVosta family. In a few words, trustworthy, professional and proud of the homes they build. Thank you, Barbara ... More

Closing delayed by two months due to construction management issues.

All though COVID was a big issue when it came to building and quality of help. When it came to Managerment which didn’t change not helpful made the whole experience not pleasant Even now trying to get a response practically impossible So overall I would say very disappointing

People are helpful and professional but the trades Take too long to correct mistaked

Nice home in great neighborhood, good amenities, not major problems, just cosmetic, hoping all will be fix soon so we can relax in our beautiful home.

Everything was great until things seemed rushed the last month. They were still working on items on the house 2 weeks after we had to close.

We love our new house

House was not ready at closing, field mgr seemed to be more interested in completion than attention to known issues, seems we paid the price with unacceptable conditions for being proactive on items needing attention. Very disappointed in the whole experience to date

Field manager was good during building process but closing was rushed and then no response to continuing issues to replace broken windows, front door still not properly hung and several other items in need of repair and completion. Totally frustrated with customer care ability to get things done with subs.

did great job on home

Sales staff were attentive at first, but not as much after we signed the contract. Construction manager was outstanding throughout the build process and even after closing making sure all punch list items were taken care of promptly.

The pool company coast to coast is absolutely terrible still have major issues there non-responsive. It is the one negative we hear everywhere in the new neighborhood. Our sales person Beau Was another person that was very nonresponsive haven’t heard from him since the sale.

Poor communications, both before and after closing.

Excellent follow up and responsiveness. Ken was great on follow up Tile work , kitchen was superb. A little dissatisfied with some sheet rock and painting Issues but these were resolved quickly by Ken’s leadership Felt a little rushed with the closing date. Feel they needed another week or 2 to make things perfect

We had to fight for any little change. Make sure you review your plans thoroughly with someone who has experience in home building or real estate. Have a real estate agent represent you. They know the in and outs of building especially if you are not around to monitor the process.

The builder is slow to respond and communicate on post close issues. There is a courteous approach to ensuring buyer will have issues addressed, but after being in the home over a month there is little evidence any plan to address issues is in place

Delivered on promises. Built exactly as designed. Minor issues were promptly fixed. Warranty support is above expactation so far.
