Anybody live in a Toll Brothers house?


Anyone live in a Toll Brothers house or community? My wife and I are thinking of buying a Toll Brothers house and would like to hear any experiences.

From what I've read on the http://www.hadd.com/ website and in the Boston Globe I don't think we'll be considering a Toll Brothers home after all. Stick with NV I think.

They have a nice golf course community here in Raleigh called Brier Creek. An acquaintence of mine through another friend bought a house there and has been pretty happy with it.

Lee,
Have they ever compare their actual measurements to the floorplan in the sales brochure. That seems to be Toll's biggest offense. The brochure shows a room as 327 sq ft. The real blueprint filed with the building inspector shows it as only 285. Then they just claim it was an "honest mistake" when they are busted.

Andrew,

That's just the tip of the Iceberg. The Boston Globe has a great expose article about Toll Brothers and there are a LOT of complaints.

So I guess their houses are kind of "crumby".

It's no joke to the poor people involved who find they have a $400K house that needs $400K of work to fix!

Never heard of 'em. Is that the name of a construction company?
