  Haven’t even lived here for 2 years and the house already has termites. Because the “new build” got treatment 1 year before we moved in the warranty for this isn’t being covered. How the heck does a warranty start on something that I haven’t even bought of lived in

  I would recommend to NOT buy with Starlight. We purchased our home last year in March 2023. Our first mistake was not hiring an independent inspector before or after closing. It's been over a year, and we've noticed a lot of quality mistakes by the builder. There's cracking in the baseboards and ceiling. Baseboards are already chipping due to low quaily products. Master bathroom toilet is already wobbling due to the poor caulking. Some caulking is actually missing between the floor and baseboard behind the master bathroom toilet. Door knobs are falling off and the front door has already warped and rubbing against the door frame. AC unit has a hard time with the heat during the summer which makes me believe that there's probably not enough insulationin the house. After time you can just tell the builder did a crappy job and cut so many corners. I can only imagine what's going on behind the walls, the attic, and roof. Some builders won't allow inspectors on the roof which is a red flag so I'd ask Starlight if they go by those rules as well. I wish I knew the things I know now about the quality of home these companies are building in America in today's world because A LOT of them are cutting corners that it should be criminal at this point. They pressure you to leave a review right after closing while your spirits are high, but I'd recommend waiting at least a year to see just how well your home was built. The HOA here imhas problems as well. They raised the fees due to the clubhouse, yet it's closed for repairs about 20% of the time. How can a building need so much repairs when it is brand new? Some of the rules they impose have nothing to do with property value and if you ask me, $110+ a month for HOA is pretty high for being in a small community as this. I've noticed through Facebook community that's this neighborhood does have a lot of Karens so beware of that. A lot of neighbors like to complain for the smallest reasons trying to tell other people what they can and cannot do, it's pretty annoying. Also, they never mentioned that there is actually a halfway home for mental past criminals in the neighborhood. They live 2 houses down and its astonishing that they never mentioned it considering this community has a bunch of families and children. There was one night on our Ring doorbell camera where one of the guys from the halfway home was wondering outside in the neighborhood at 3AM in the morning. It was quite frightening seeing him looking drugged out right outside our front door, bare footed. There was another night where a neighbor also had a Rong camera and there was a lady who managed to get out of the halfway home and she was just standing in front of their door looking very scary. They had to call the police to find her and return her to halfway home. In conclusion, if you decide to move here then at the very least, please get your home inspected by a good and honest inspector.

  Fix the community center. No info or website about why it’s literally always closed. This is what we are paying for.

  Our biggest complaint with starlight homes is there aren’t being honest about some things that includes some build quality issues like uneven walls and missing trim work that’s not included. Additionally, having a brand new home that doesn’t get below 84° in the summer and being told that is with in specifications and they aren’t going to do anything about it. Additionally the fact we were sold on a community center that was going to be opened end of March first week of April of 2023 that still isn’t opened and here we are into October. Having kids this is a big deal especially since we sold them on having a swimming pool this summer and having a place to play on the summer holidays and being able to meet new friends in the community before they started their new schools and for my wife and I canceling a gym membership and not having to commute to the gym was also enticing. Sadly none of this happens or has been addressed. Every month the community center missed the deadline Starlight homes just say oh the end of next month it will be open and then pointing the finger at the land developer say they are the ones causing deals. I understand Starlite homes does not have control over building the community center but they sure did use it to sell us a home and falsify a timeframe every month. Buying a new home for $300000+ there should be some level of excitement for a family. In this case it just turns into more disappointments every month. I have growing concerned about other things that will come up. The good thing I will say, the people that we’ve talked to have been very nice however, nice doesn’t produce results. It’s also disappointing Starlight homes isn’t even making an attempt to make things right for our family.
