I hear you on looking at the house regularly. I'd be too excited not to keep tabs on the progress. I had a townhome built with Pulte Homes years ago and they were fine with letting you in as often as you liked to look at it. It was a really nice townhome but we grew out of it quickly as our family grew.<br />Definitely going to consider doing a blog as well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383600864345484399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892485843869611332.post-45992791902535528152016-07-10T15:57:57.222-05:002016-07-10T15:57:57.222-05:00Steven- ABSOLUTELY!

Amber and the other sales girl sweet talk you to no end about how their homes are so amazing. We all know anything built by man is not perfect. <br /><br />Our inspector found a few things. While they were not huge problems they were problems that would have caused us issues in the long run. They will also ask you to not visit the house while it is under construction but Jim and I came daily. That was how we kept tabs on what was going on. We would wait until everyone was gone from the house then game on! Lol. If you need tips on how to get in after they lock it feel free to ask. <br /><br />We blogged from beginning until end just so we have a record. If you guys have time I highly suggest it. Then you can recall dates and events should an issue arise. <br /><br />Please feel free to ask anything you need! bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07159261429235343079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892485843869611332.post-70387000600775803632016-07-10T15:48:27.021-05:002016-07-10T15:48:27.021-05:00Thank you.

The crews they hire for the Hardie board siding did not to a great job so we have been intermittently dealing with that as well. The driveway is the biggest pain so far! Interior wise it's been great. No huge issues here. <br /><br />Most of the neighbors we talk to have been pleased! Our house is going on two years old and I really have zero complaints interior wise. Most of the complaints I've heard in here have been extremely petty and Ryan does always try to fix it in a timely fashion. <br /><br />When you get into the building process do hire an independent inspector for pre drywall as well as pre settlement. You are spending a ton of money on the home so it's very worth it for you to see what you are getting. <br /><br />Jim and I run a Facebook group where people share their experiences on Ryan. If you would like to join there are quite a few homeowners from here in Shorewood on the board too!

This is just flaking right off to where you can see the aggregate. It's really bad. I've spoken to Dick and he claims they are going to do it but I've heard that for almost a year now.... It's kind of getting old. I put a the first service request in 2/27/15. They admitted it was bad in June.lof 15. Why am I still waiting a year? bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07159261429235343079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4892485843869611332.post-66908596347245673782016-07-08T08:52:12.675-05:002016-07-08T08:52:12.675-05:00Hmm, keep us updated as we are considering buildin...Hmm, keep us updated as we are considering building a Milan in Shorewood with Ryan Homes. We're about a year out from starting construction on anything so watching and considering options at this point.
