Jackie French built so many homes in Madisonville and cut corners. Use of warpped and knotted cheap wood and shotty workmanship. has lead to beautiful homes that eventually would and will not pass inspection. The main beam that holds my beautiful home up off it's foundation broke one day, leaving my home shifted 2 inches and now I have cracks in my home above the door frames, the soffets have been knocked out of place, and I have a 1/2 gap where my bar has seperated from the wall. This isn't to mention that the house has a slope as you walk through the kitchen to the livingroom. I am terrified that it is going to just cave in before I can get it jacked up. If looking for realestate, make sure it wasn't built by Jackie French. I am not the only home that has had MAJOR problems. Some small "new construction" glitches seem the norm, but this is a nightmare. My home is 14 years old and a money pit. I will never be able to sell it.
Pros: Beautiful and expensive homes.
Cons: Money pits.
