Williams Grove is being built in one of the desired neighborhood in the Cary/Apex border and due to its location, I started to find more of this place. I had one of the most pleasing experience while working with William Eble at Stanley Martin. He was the first person ever I interacted with in our homebuying process and from the very first day, I felt welcomed by him. Due to the high prices that were offered by Stanley Martin and other builders, I backed out only to think about it later. But, William kept in touch with me and kept my energy and spirit going. He is a fantastic gentleman, very polite and courteous who keeps in touch always. He answers all of my questions irrespective of me buying or not. I wish him all the best in life.

I had one of the most disappointing experiences dealing with the sales team at Williams Grove. After visiting the community multiple times and speaking with a representative over the phone—who mentioned new incentives—I decided to walk in again today with my family, expecting a smooth and straightforward process. We even skipped lunch to prioritize what we thought would be an important and exciting step toward purchasing our new home.
Originally, I had planned to co-purchase the home with a friend. However, due to financial reasons, he had to step back—a fact I had already discussed with the sales representative. After carefully considering our options, we decided on a $735K home with realtor discussion, even we spoke to complete our paper next 5:30 PM and were fully prepared to move forward. I entered my banking information for the 5% deposit, and the only step remaining was lot confirmation from the agent.
That’s when things took an unexpected and frustrating turn. The sales agent suddenly brought up the original co-purchase plan—despite knowing it was no longer active—and used it as a reason to delay and question the deal. It quickly became clear that internal politics and commission incentives were being prioritized over fairness and professionalism.
To make matters worse, the agent then asked for an additional $5K under the guise of needing “final approval,” all while giving preference to a different buyer who had walked in after us, claiming they had a prior appointment. Sales person (William Eble) says “I’m sorry”, I cannot do anything. The entire situation felt manipulative and insincere.
The way the narrative was flipped, the introduction of sudden hurdles, and the blatant favoritism created an incredibly stressful and disheartening experience. It was obvious that our family’s serious intent to buy was being sidelined in favor of other prospects, likely due to commission considerations.
Buying a home is a major decision that should be met with honesty and transparency. Unfortunately, that was not the case here. I strongly caution anyone considering working with this sales team—be vigilant and prepared for tactics that may put your time, energy, and trust at risk.
